Roasted Red Pepper Coulis Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the roasted and cooled peppers into small pieces and puree with remaining ingredients in a blender. Makes about 1 cup.
• Note: to oven roast peppers, place under a broiler in a pan on the rack positioned about 6 inches from the pre-heated source of heat and turn frequently to blacken all sides. Transfer the roasted peppers to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let them steam for 10-15 minutes. Using a small knife, cut away the stems, open the peppers up and remove the seeds and membranes. Wipe the work surface clean with a damp towel whenever necessary. Scrape away the charred skin.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the sweet red peppers and garlic and saute for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Mix in the vinegar and sugar.
• Add the red pepper flakes, salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, over medium heat for 15 more minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes and basil; simmer for 10 more minutes.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. (I use my toaster oven).
• Place peppers on a baking sheet and roast until all sides are blackened (about 25 minutes) turning occasionally.
• Cool peppers, lift off skins, then cut in half and core.
• In a food processor combine peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and basil leaves. Process until smooth.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss all the cut vegetables, except for the tomatoes, with olive oil until each piece is coated and then sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Transfer the vegetables to a baking sheet and roast until tender. Allow the vegetables to cool and then place them in a large bowl. Toss in the tomatoes and arugula until combined.
• Raise oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Cut each sheet of phyllo in half widthwise. Spray each sheet with cooking spray and then stack the sheets so that there are 2 layers. Lay the phyllo lengthwise vertically and place about 1/2 cup of vegetable mixture in the center. Roll up and tuck in the sides to make a strudel. Spray the outsides with cooking spray and then bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Top the strudel with Roasted Red Pepper Coulis and serve.
• Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the peppers, onions, leeks, and garlic and saute until translucent and the garlic is slightly brown. Add the basil, oregano, and cilantro, along with the vegetable stock, and salt and pepper, to taste; simmer over medium-high heat for approximately 10 minutes. Pour the mixture in a blender and puree until smooth*, while slowly drizzling extra-virgin olive oil into the pitcher. Strain the mixture through a coarse strainer and serve over the strudel.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
• Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
• Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil over the peppers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except yogurt or sour cream into a food processor or blender; puree until smooth. Place the mixture into a microwave-safe dish and heat for 2 minutes on medium-high. Stir and serve over Savory Corn Griddle

Steps:

• In a saute pan, heat oil. Saute garlic and onion until onion is translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add bell pepper. Add stock and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Take off heat and puree in a blender. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, coat vegetables with olive oil. Add salt and pepper, to taste, and chopped garlic. Toss and place on baking sheet. Roast until very golden brown, about 20 to 30 minutes. Cool. Add cheese, parsley and basil.
• Sift flour, baking powder and salt and pepper together and slowly whisk in milk. If batter is still a little thick, dilute with a bit more milk. Heat a small saute pan and lightly oil it (or use spray). Place a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) and swirl it around in pan to cover bottom. When bottom is cooked, the edges will be a little brown. Remove and flip, then let cool on tray. Make 12 crepes.
• Melt butter; add flour, then chicken broth. Add red peppers and garlic. Simmer 30 minutes. Pour hot mixture into blender and blend until smooth to make red pepper sauce.
• Heat crepes in oven. Spoon filling mixture into center of each crepe; fold into a triangle shape. In hot saute pan, lightly saute until golden. Place 2 crepes per individual serving on each plate, ladle sauce on top. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Place 1 pepper on a gas burner over medium flame, or place pepper under the broiler. Cook until blackened on all sides, 8 to 12 minutes. Let pepper cool in a paper bag. Peel, and seed. Set aside. Seed, devein, and coarsely chop second pepper.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add oil, and swirl to coat pan. Add chopped fresh bell pepper, shallot, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shallots are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add stock, and simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a food processor. Add lemon juice and roasted pepper; puree. Taste, and adjust for seasoning.

Steps:

• Rinse 1 red or yellow bell pepper (about 10 oz.); pat dry.
• Set pepper in a 9-inch pie or cake pan and broil 3 to 4 inches from heat, turning as needed, until charred on all sides, about 15 minutes total.
• Let cool.
• With a small, sharp knife, remove and discard skin, stem, and seeds. Coarsely chop pepper and place in a blender or food processor.
• Add 1 tablespoon water and 1 teaspoon olive oil; whirl until smooth.
• Add salt and cayenne to taste.
• If coulis is thicker than desired, thin with 1 to 2 more tablespoons water.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add red bell peppers and shallots; saute until soft. Stir in white wine and chicken broth, and simmer over low heat until reduced by half.
• When the mixture is reduced, stir in sour cream, and transfer the mixture to a blender. Puree until smooth. Reheat before serving if necessary.

Steps:

• In a medium-size skillet, combine red pepper, tomato, onion and tomato juice and cook until tender. Stir in the basil and thyme. Puree in a blender until smooth. Return to skillet and cook over low heat until mixture is reduced to about 1 1/2 cups.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the peppers on a baking tray and roast in the oven for about 45 mins until the skins are blackened. Remove from the oven and put into a plastic bag - this makes them sweat and the skins slip off more easily. When cool enough to handle, peel off the skins with your fingers. Slice the peppers open, pick out and discard all the seeds and membrane, then roughly chop the red flesh.
• Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. When hot, fry the garlic and shallot for a few mins. Add the chopped peppers and continue to fry for a few mins, stirring to combine everything. Add the vegetable stock, bring to the boil, then allow it to reduce a little.
• Pour the contents of the pan into a blender and whizz until smooth. Adjust the seasoning to taste. Depending on the ripeness of the peppers, you shouldn't need any sugar - but if they retain a slightly bitter flavour, return the sauce to the pan, add sugar to taste and let it dissolve over the heat. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place the couscous in a large bowl.
• Bring 2 cups of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Pour the water over couscous and cover with plastic wrap.
• Let sit for 10 min.
• Uncover and fluff with a fork.
• Meanwhile heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add the onion and zucchini and cook until lightly browned.(about 5 min)
• Add the zucchini and onion, along with the remaining ingredients to the couscous and mix well.
• Season with aditional salt and freshly ground pepper if desired.
