Romesco Sauce

This classic Romesco sauce is a vibrant, smoky addition to any Mediterranean-inspired spread. Originating from Catalonia, this vegan-friendly sauce relies on a delicious blend of roasted red peppers, toasted almonds, and piquant Sherry vinegar. The addition of smoked paprika provides a deep, savoury base, while a hint of cayenne pepper adds a gentle warmth that elevates the natural sweetness of the peppers.

Hearty and versatile, this homemade sauce is traditionally served alongside grilled vegetables, though it works equally well as a dip for crusty bread or a topping for roasted potatoes. Because the flavours develop beautifully over time, it is a brilliant make-ahead option for busy weekdays or weekend entertaining. Simply store it in the fridge and bring it to room temperature before serving to enjoy its full, rich profile.
