Roasted Red Pepper And Olive Salsa Food

ROASTED PEPPER BLENDER SALSA

Steps:

CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER & OLIVE SALSA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Slice the cauliflower into two 1-inch steaks - use the middle part as it's larger, and save the rest for another time. Rub the paprika and ½ tbsp oil over the steaks and season. Put on the tray and roast for 15-20 mins until cooked through.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa. Chop the pepper, olives, parsley and capers, and put into a bowl and mix with the remaining oil and vinegar. Season to taste. When the steaks are cooked, spoon over the salsa and top with flaked almonds to serve.

RED PEPPER & TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• Tip the tomatoes, garlic and chilli into a food processor with the peppers, bread, vinegar, salt and pepper. Pulse to make a rough purée. Turn into a small bowl, cover with cling film and chill until ready to serve.

FRESH PEPPER SALSA

Steps:

• Finely mince all the fresh vegetables, and mix well in a bowl.
• Stir in lemon juice and olive oil.
• Slowly add the powdered ingredients while stirring.

STEAK WITH RED PEPPER SALSA AND ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 450˚. Cut the cauliflower in half through the core, place cut-side down and slice through the stem into long, 3/4-inch-thick florets. Gently toss the cauliflower and any leaves with 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread out on the hot baking sheet and roast until browned and tender, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, evenly pound the flank steak with the textured side of a meat mallet until 1/2 inch thick. Halve the steak crosswise and lengthwise; rub with salt and pepper, the paprika and granulated garlic. Let sit at room temperature 10 minutes.
• Thinly slice the celery and toss with the vinegar in a medium bowl; let sit 5 minutes. Chop the roasted red peppers, olives and parsley and add to the celery along with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 pinches of salt and a few grinds of pepper; toss.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.
• Divide the steak and cauliflower among plates. Spoon the red pepper salsa on top.

ROASTED FISH WITH LEEKS AND OLIVE SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Season fish all over with salt and pepper, and set aside while you prepare the leeks.
• Cut the leeks into matchsticks: Place a leek half, flat side down, on a cutting board and cut it in half crosswise. Then slice the pieces lengthwise into thin (1/4-inch-thick) matchsticks. Repeat with remaining leeks.
• Spread leeks out on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly drizzle them with oil and a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Push aside the leeks to create 4 spaces in the center of the sheet pan just large enough for the fish fillets, then place the fillets in those cleared spaces. (Avoid putting the fish on top of the leeks, which won't cook as well if they're covered.)
• Drizzle fish with oil. Roast until the fish is opaque and just cooked through but not yet flaky, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of fish. The leeks surrounding the fish will be soft and silky, while those at the edges of the pan may turn delightfully brown and crisp in spots. If the fish is done but you think the leeks need a little more time, transfer the fish to a serving platter, tent with foil to keep warm, and continue to cook the leeks for another few minutes.
• While the fish is in the oven, make the salsa verde: Using a fine rasp grater, grate 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest into a small bowl. Halve the lemon and squeeze in 1 tablespoon juice.
• Stir in olives, cilantro, garlic, red-pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in oil, stirring to combine. Taste and add more salt, red-pepper or another squeeze of lemon, if needed.
• Place fish on plates and surround with leeks. Top with olive salsa verde.

ROASTED GARLIC, TOMATO AND OLIVE SALSA

Steps:

• Peel the garlic carefully to keep the cloves whole. Cut them in half lengthwise. In a bowl, toss together the olives, tomatoes and garlic. Mix in the olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Add the basil leaves and toss. Serve over grilled chicken or tuna or toss with cooked pasta.
