Melissa says
One of my favourite dips, I also add 2-3 fresh chillies and extra Parmesan. I always have some in the freezer just in case. Thanks Leonie.
thermofun says

Bronwyn says
How long does this keep in the fridge once made because I forgot to freeze my leftovers!!
thermofun says
I work on about 5 days Bronwyn :)
kal20m says
This dip is another favourite in our household. It freezes so well that I try to make double and keep some in the freezer for unexpected visitors or that Saturday or Sunday afternoon when you have been working in the garden and want to relax on the deck with a drink and some nibblies.
thermofun says
oh you'll have to try it now with my sweet chilli sauce that you made! :)
Thermo Amour says
Made this for the weekend but added a little heat with fresh chillis from the garden. Delicious!! Thank you for the recipe :)
Gail says
how long would this dip last in the fridge? Want to make for a party and trying to prepare as much as possible in advance.
thermofun says
Gail I have frozen this dip successfully. In fact I yet to find a dip that doesn't freeze well! :)
It would last in the fridge at a guess for 4-5 days.
Robyne says
This dip was delish. I used slightly less vinegar and added some feta. Kids loved it. Even my daughter who does not like tomatoes. Everyone kept asking for more.
thermofun says
Great idea adding the feta Robyne :)
Emilly says
This is very yum!!! I add a little cream cheese to soften it for my kids and they loved it!!!
thermofun says
That's a great idea Emily with a little cream cheese! :)

Cassie says
Just made this for a picnic tonight. Tastes soooo good - looking forward to everyone else having some (if there's any left!)
thermofun says
Just make sure you get your share Cassie! You did 'cook' it :) Enjoy your picnic!

leisa says
LOVE this… Have already made it and the basil one :)
but I use slightly less vinegar… 10-15gms!
Thanks Leonie!
thermofun says
Yes I agree re the vinegar Leisa - I'll alter the recipe on the website.
Joanne Beattie says
Wow love the look of you're website. Congratulations.
Teresa says
Sorry, but is it 70 sun dried tomatoes or 70grams of sundries tomatoes? Thanks Teresa :)
thermofun says
Oops! Yes 70 grams. Counting 70 would be very messy!! No sleep for 36 hours could be the problem there!!
