Adzhika is a fiery Georgian condiment, which has become popular throughout Russia and many of the former Soviet countries. You can purchase it in Russian or European markets, or make it yourself.
To make Adzhika you need not just pepper (both sweet and hot) and garlic but also coriander seeds, a mixture of dried herbs that is called “khmeli-suneli” (I don’t know the ingredients of that) and walnuts.
1 cup red bell pepper, not roasted and not peeled
1 cup hot red pepper, not roasted and not peeled
1/2 cup of peeled garlic
1/4 cup of coriander seeds
2 teaspoons of khmeli-suneli (though you can skip that if you have no contact in Georgia)
1 cup of walnut pieces
Grind ingredients together in mortar or food processor. Since it’s the walnuts who gives the adzhika its thickness, keep adding walnuts till the final product becomes like butter. Store covered in the refrigerator.
