    Preparation Steps

    1

    Soak the dried red chilies in hot water for 10 minutes to soften.

    2

    Mince the garlic and sauté it in a pan with a little olive oil until fragrant.

    3

    Place all the ingredients - the soaked chilies, sautéed garlic, olive oil, ground cumin, coriander seeds, Hungarian sweet paprika, salt, and lemon juice - into a food processor.

    4

    Process the mixture until you get a smooth, creamy consistency. If it's too thick, add a little of the chili soaking water.

    5

    Transfer the sauce to an airtight jar and store it in the refrigerator. The flavors will meld and intensify over time.

    6

    Serve with grilled meats, couscous, or fresh bread.
