This is perfect for Summer. It tastes great with cold dishes or as a flavoursome dip.

4 Red Peppers
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Chives
125ml Wholemilk Plain Yoghurt

Wash the peppers, blanch quickly in boiling water in order to peel off the skin. Cut in half and remove any seeds and the white ribs, then dice up.

Sautee for 10 minutes in hot olive oil until soft. Then add the water.

Season with salt and pepper and cook for 25 minutes until all water has evaporated. Remove from the stove.

Once cooled, blend with chives and yogurt.

Use as a dip or as a dressing for a cold chicken salad.

A wide variety of flavours can be unlocked with our range of peppercorns..

Ah what would any chef do wthout a good selection of spices? We know very well that anyone remotely interested in learning how to cook needs at least two things: a good cook book to start with and a cupboard full of spices to boost the flavours (or hide the occasional mistakes).

That’s why at Natoora we have decided to widen our already rich selection of spices and cooking ingredients! Pepper is the most popular and most widespread spice in the world, so let’s concentrate on it and some of the new varieties from Steenberg’s Organics:

Organic Green Peppercorns: Fresh, light and fruity, these are whole peppercorns which have not ripened fully. Ideal with red meat and salmon.
Organic Black Peppercorns: Strong and pungent, these are some of the finest you will find on the market.
Organic Pink Peppercorns: Sweet, delicate and pungent at the same time, they beautifully pair with fish but are really a berry!

Happy Eating!
