Pepper sauce recipe
The best thing about this sauce is that we can make a large quantity and reserve it in an airtight glass container in the fridge for approximately two weeks.
So without further ado let's start with the ingredients and preparation of this sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 medium red bell peppers
- 1 medium white onion
- 1 head of garlic
- 4 Bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ sweet red wine
- 1 tsp oregano powder
- 1 tsp black pepper powder
- 3 tsp salt
Preparation
The first thing we will do is peel and finely chop the onion, just like with the garlic cloves. We will also take the red peppers, wash them and remove the seeds and the white vein that they bring very well. Like the onions and garlic, we will finely chop it into julienne strips.
We will take a pot and put it on medium heat along with the olive oil. Once both are hot, add the onion and garlic. We will fry until we see that the onion is transparent.
When the onion and garlic are well fried, we will add the peppers. With a wooden spoon, stir until they soften.
Once the red paprika is soft, very carefully, place the paprika, onion and garlic in the blender, together with the olive oil. Blend until a paste forms.
Again we will bring to fire but this time on low heat. We will add the red wine, the oregano, the salt, the pepper and the bay leaves, breaking them a little so that they aromatize the preparation well.
The seasoning of the sauce is to each person's taste. If you think you should add more salt or another seasoning, do it. Just keep in mind that we will use it to complement other preparations, which already have their characteristic flavor.
We add to our glass container and let cool before storing or use immediately after preparation.
