Smoky paprika, roasted red pepper, garlic and fresh herbs are bound with olive oil and a splash of red wine vinegar. It keeps well in the fridge and works on almost anything you would grill or roast. Equipment: food processor (or a sharp knife), skillet, mixing bowl, airtight jar Roasted red peppers (jarred), drained and patted dry ½ cup 100 g Fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves and tender stems ¾ cup, lightly packed 25 g Fresh cilantro, leaves and tender stems ⅓ cup, lightly packed 12 g Kosher salt 1 tsp, plus more to taste 5 g 1. Char the green onions. Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the whole green onions for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until blackened in spots. You can also do this under the broiler. Let them cool, then chop finely. 2. Prepare the peppers. Pat the roasted red peppers dry with paper towel. Pulse them in a food processor 5 to 6 times until finely chopped but still a little chunky. Or chop them finely by hand. 3. Chop the herbs and garlic. Finely chop the parsley and cilantro, and mince the garlic. 4. Combine. In a mixing bowl, stir together the peppers, green onions, parsley, cilantro, garlic, vinegar, olive oil, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, sugar and chili flakes until well mixed. 5. Taste and adjust. Add a pinch more salt if needed. The sweetness of jarred peppers varies by brand, so the salt, sugar and vinegar may need a small tweak. For the best flavour, let the sauce rest for 30 minutes before serving. Transfer to an airtight jar and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Stir well before using, since the oil can separate. If the oil firms up in the fridge, let the jar sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Ways to Serve Spoon it over grilled steak, chicken or fish, roasted vegetables or potatoes, or fried eggs. It also works as a sandwich spread or a dip for crusty bread. If you use Diamond Crystal kosher salt, use about 1¾ tsp instead of 1 tsp, as it is less dense than other brands. Start with less and taste as you go Add Global News as a Preferred Source on Google to see more of our stories in your search results.
