Bell pepper caviar

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to prepare caviar from baked bell peppers for the winter? Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Wash the bell pepper, cut out the stalk with the seed pod. Cut the pepper pods into two or three parts and place it in a fireproof dish (no need to grease the bottom of the dish with oil).

2. STEP 2

   

   Bake the peppers at about 190 degrees for about 20 minutes. There is no need to keep the pepper in the oven until it turns brown, otherwise it may give the caviar a bitter taste.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the tomatoes, cut out where the stem attaches, and cut the pulp into large pieces. For vegetable caviar, you can use large, fleshy tomatoes that are not suitable for preservation in their entirety. If the skin of the tomatoes is hard and dense, you must first remove it by placing the fruit in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes. Grind the tomatoes into a puree using a blender or meat grinder.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the carrots, peel and grate.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel the onions and cut into cubes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan and heat it. Fry the onions in oil until transparent. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Add carrots to the frying pan with the onions, fry them together, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the carrots are soft.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the roasted vegetables into a thick-bottomed pan, and add the bell pepper and tomato paste. Add garlic, passed through a press or finely grated, salt, and a piece of hot pepper. Place the pan on the fire. When the mixture boils, reduce the heat and simmer the vegetables, stirring occasionally with a spatula, for 20 minutes. The exact time depends on the chosen pan, as well as the operating characteristics of your stove.

8. STEP 8

   

   To make the mixture homogeneous, use a blender to puree the vegetables. Pour in the table vinegar, put the mixture back on the fire and simmer for about 5 minutes.

9. STEP 9

   

   Place bell pepper caviar into pre-prepared jars (washed and sterilized) and immediately roll up the lids. Read about the nuances of preparing jars for preservation at the link below. Let the workpiece cool under a blanket at room temperature and store it in a cool place. Bon appetit and happy cooking!

Tatyana, the recipe is very interesting, we love peppers and I’ll definitely try it. But this year, due to bad weather, the peppers did not ripen on time, so they were picked green. Next year already.....

Isn't there enough salt? Maybe these are tablespoons, not teaspoons?
