Ingredients

• 60 g sunflower seeds
• 3 red bell peppers, chopped
• 1 tomato
• 2 red onions, halved
• 1 clove garlic
• 1/2 small apple, chopped
• 1 heaped tsp salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• 20 g red balsamic vinegar
• 20 g sunflower oil

Instructions

Place the sunflower seeds in the mixing bowl and grind for 5-7 seconds/speed 7 until very fine. Transfer the ground sunflower seeds to a separate bowl.

Place the bell peppers, tomato, onions, garlic clove, apple, salt, sugar, and vinegar in the mixing bowl and chop for 10 seconds/speed 7.

Place the simmering basket on the mixing bowl lid to prevent splattering and cook for 35 minutes/Varoma/speed 2.5.

Add the oil and ground sunflower seeds and blend gradually, increasing the speed from 4 to 6 to 8 for 10 seconds.

You may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
