It was rather dry do I put in a couple of TBSP of water and a splash of sherry when I added the spices and capers and that helped a lot.
Delicious! Used anchovy paste (didn't have any fresh). Added some swiss chard & spicy peppers from the garden and served it on some quinoa, topped with some slivered almonds and a little bit of cottage cheese.
A good recipe, although the quantity seems insufficient for 4. I used roasted red peppers from a jar instead of fresh ones.
