Roasted Red Pepper Coulis Recipes

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:

• 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:

• 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:

• 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:

• 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:

• 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:

• Roast the peppers until the outer skin turns black all over. Immediately place the peppers in a bowl covered tightly with plastic, and allow to cool for 20 minutes or longer. Separate the blackened outer peel by hand. Heat the olive oil and shallots in a saute pan over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes. When the shallots are softened, add the peppers, then the stock. Simmer and stir until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Puree the pepper mixture in a food processor or blender, being very careful with the hot spinning liquid, then pass it through a strainer. Add more liquid if desired, and salt and pepper to taste.

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:

• 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 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.
