Roasted Pepper Salsa

Ingredients

  1. 4 large Bell peppers or capsicum—can be different colors

  2. 5 peeled Shallots

  3. 1 Serrano pepper

  4. ¼ cup of Vinegar

  5. 1 tablespoon of Sesame oil

  6. Salt to taste


Directions:

  • Char the peppers over an open flame such that they are completely charred on all sides—at this point, place them in a large bowl with a lid and set aside to steam.

  • When the peppers have cooled and steamed, peel off the charred skin and set aside.

  • In a nonstick pan, heat the oil and add the serrano and shallots—sauté on a high flame until the ingredients have been caramelized.

  • Add the vinegar and allow the mixture to come to a boil.

  • Now, combine all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until you achieve a salsa texture.

  • Add salt to taste and serve with your favorite pita or tortilla chips.

This dish is a great way to enjoy the taste of summer with wholesome ingredients prepared at home without any preservatives. As always, I wish that you choose your food wisely and live long and strong!
