Roasted Yellow Pepper Sauce INGREDIENTS:
½ tsp wholegrain mustard
¼ tsp turmeric
2 yellow bell peppers, roasted (see instructions)
2 tbsp Willow Creek lemon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
½ lemon, juiced
Salt and pepper to taste
Ginger Jasmine Rice INGREDIENTS:
2 tablespoons peeled and grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup jasmine rice
Assortment fresh produce, cut into bite sized chunks INGREDIENTS:
Corn riblets
Patty pans, halved
Pineapple, sliced
Baby corn
Baby carrots
olive oil
salt and pepper
Fresh parsley, to garnish
METHOD:
1 – For the rice, bring the ginger, sugar, salt, and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan, boil 2 minutes. Stir in the rice, reduce heat to low, cover, cook until most water is absorbed, 15 – 17 minutes. Remove from heat, and let stand covered, 7 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and set aside.
2 – Preheat oven to 200’C, arrange a mix of the assortment of fresh produce on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes, turning halfway, until the edges of the vegetables are slightly charred and caramalised, and they feel tender when inserting a fork. Remove from the oven and set aside.
3 – For the sauce, roast the peppers, either in the oven or over a flame, until the skin is well charred. Let the peppers cool down before removing the skin and seeds. Add the roasted peppers to a blender, along with the remaining sauce ingredients and blend until smooth. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper as needed.
4 – Set out 4 large plates. On each plate, lay a ¼ bed of rice, followed by an assortment of the roasted vegetables and pineapple on top. Finally, drizzle the sauce over and finish with a garnish of parsley. Enjoy with friends and family with a chilled glass of Laborie Chenin Blanc.
