Summer has arrived with this bright plate of grilled peppers in sunshine sauce
To make this recipe of Grilled Peppers in Sunshine Sauce you will need to head on down to your local Turkish supermarket and buy yourself some Sivri Biber – sweet green Turkish peppers. Comparable to regular green peppers (capsicum) but with their own unique flavour, Sivri Biber have a pleasing ‘green’ taste and are not at all spicy.
Fresh fruity Asian-inspired dressing
Keeping with the warm summer al fresco feeling, the all-important ‘sunshine sauce’ dressing in this recipe uses a mix of soy, ginger, spring onion, lime juice rind and pineapple juice (or orange juice) which when combined together creates a wonderful salty, citrus tangy and fruity taste.
Grilling peppers
Sivri Biber are long and thin which means grilling time is rather short and effortless. You can use a coal or gas bbq, stove top cast iron griddle pan or even a grilled sandwich maker to achieve the charred outer skin.
