Under a very hot broiler or an open gas flame, roast the bell peppers until the skins char black and the insides are soft. Let them sit for a bit to cool, and when they are cool enough to handle, peel the pepper and discard the seeds and the skin.

Place a dry frying pan over low heat and toast the caraway, fennel, coriander, and cumin seeds for a couple of minutes until they become fragrant. Grind the toasted seeds into fine powder with a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder.

Ina food processor or blender, put the ground spices, bell peppers, hot chilli peppers, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, paprika, lemon juice, and olive oil. Pulse until you get a vibrant brick-red coloured paste, adding more oil as needed. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Transfer to jars. You can use it immediately but probably better to let it sit overnight to let the flavours meld.
