Recipe Piquillo Peppers with Spring White Garlic
Hi!
We’re going to prepare a starter that will get you out of more than one tight spot.
We’ll just need Piquillo Peppers and Spring White Garlic… just that easy ![]()
Hands to the kitchen!!!
Method
Peel and slice the Garlic cloves as finely as possible.
Wash and chop the Chive.
Put a dab of Olive Oil in a pan on medium heat. Put in the Garlic and leave to golden, so it leaves its flavour in the Oil.
Add the Peppers and a pinch of Sugar, sauté for a few minutes and add some Water. Finally add a pinch of Salt.
Cook until the water has been almost completely absorbed and the Peppers are tender.
DISH PRESENTATION:
Place the Peppers side by side on a plate, and put the garlic slices on them.
Sprinkle the Chive and some Fleur de Sel on them, and the dish is ready!
TIPS FROM THE CHEF_Miguel Ángel Mateos:
- Adding Water will help the Peppers get better cooked and will help blend the flavours of the Oil and the Peppers’ juice.
- By using low-medium heat to cook the Peppers and increasing the heat towards the end, we will help the texture of the sauce.
- The teaspoon of Sugar lessens the Pepper’s acidity and gives this dish a pleasant sweet touch.
