Red Pepper Relish
- 2 medium-size sweet red peppers
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons crushed coriander seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 2 heaping tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves
- Char the skins of the peppers over an open flame or under the broiler until they are completely blackened.
- When cool enough to handle, rub off the blackened skin, then split, seed and core the peppers.
- Chop them fine.
- Heat a dry, heavy skillet over medium-high heat, add the cumin, coriander and pepper and cook until they begin to become fragrant, two to three minutes.
- Lower the heat and add the oil, ginger and garlic to the skillet.
- Cook a minute or so, then add the wine and chopped peppers.
- Increase the heat and cook another few minutes, until there is no excess moisture in the skillet.
- Remove from heat, stir in the chopped fresh coriander and set aside until ready to serve.
