The flavours of Spain come to life in a smooth and creamy roasted red pepper sauce blended with Smoked Paprika and Marcona almonds. As versatile as it is memorable, romesco is spreadable – think burgers and crusty, toasted or plancha-style bread, as well as dippable – think grilled chicken, vegetables and seafood.
Ingredients
150 Spanish extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 slice white bread
1 red pepper, roasted, peeled and seeded
1 tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped
1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
100 grams (4 ounce) Marcona almonds
1/2 teaspoon Chilli Flakes
2 tablespoons Paprika
1/4 teaspoon Coarse Ground Black Pepper
1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
