  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

  • In a small, dry skillet, add the almonds and hazelnut pieces over medium heat. Shaking the skillet often, lightly toast the nuts until fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes.

Notes

Tips & Tricks:  I say this makes around 8 servings but that will really depend on how you use it. Also, use good quality olive oil- it's an important ingredient in this sauce.

You could make this sauce ahead of time and assemble when ready to eat. 

Stock up: get the pantry ingredients you will need: red peppers, tomato puree, hazelnuts/almonds
