Ingredients

4 cloves garlic
1 cup olive oil
4 sweet red bell peppers
2 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp sherry vinegar

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 300 F
  2. Place the garlic and the olive oil in a small oven proof dish and put in the oven to slowly cook until the garlic is soft and fragrant, about 1 hour
  3. Meanwhile, char the bell peppers over the burner or under the broiler until the skin is blistered, transfer to a container with a lid (or plastic wrap) to steam for 5 minutes, then scrap away the skin and seeds reserving as much of the liquid as possible
  4. Combine the peppers, cooked garlic, olive oil, mustard and vinegar in a blender with a hefty pinch of salt and blend until smooth and emulsified
