Ingredients

• 5 medium Ripe tomatoes
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prep all the vegetables. Roughly chop the tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion into chunks for easier blending.

Step 2

Peel the garlic cloves and set aside.

Step 3

In a blender or food processor, combine the tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and garlic. Blend until smooth but still slightly chunky, depending on your preferred texture.

Step 4

Drizzle in the olive oil and red wine vinegar and blend again to emulsify the mixture.

Step 5

Add Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the blender. Pulse a few more times to mix thoroughly.

Step 6

Taste the dip and adjust seasonings as needed. For a brighter flavor, add a little more vinegar; for richness, a small drizzle of olive oil can be added.

Step 7

Transfer the dip to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Optional but recommended.)

Step 8

Before serving, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if using.

Step 9

Serve chilled with fresh vegetables, pita chips, crackers, or a baguette.
