Yields2 ServingsPrep Time3 minsCook Time25 minsTotal Time28 mins

A creamy and tangy sauce made with roasted red peppers and garlic.

 2 red peppers
 5 garlic cloves
 1 onion (peeled and quartered)
 2 tbsp olive oil
 3 tbsp silken tofu
 ½ tsp salt
 ½ tsp black pepper
 ½ tsp red chilli flakes
 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F. Prepare your peppers by cutting them in half, breaking off the green stems and removing the seeds.

2

Brush the peppers, onion and garlic with olive oil and place them on a baking tray. Roast them in the oven for 20-25 minutes till the skins of the peppers are slightly charred.

3

Take the tray out of the oven and cover the vegetables with foil for another 5 minutes.

4

Then remove the pepper peels gently. They should come off pretty easily. Process the peppers, onion, garlic cloves, salt, pepper, chilli flakes, silken tofu and balsamic vinegar in a blender till the tofu is just about blended into the sauce but it still has a chunky texture.

5

The sauce is amazing with anything. Use as a dip for chips or drizzle over some fish, chicken or pasta for a delicious meal!
