Mixed Pepper Corn Sauce

by Balvinder. 4 Comments

Black pepper has been widely used in Indian cooking for its medicinal properties and aromatic flavor. It is also the most traded spice used in western cuisine.
There are different colors of peppercorns and its interesting that all the pepper varieties are derived from the same vine. Their difference comes from picking the berries at various stages of ripening and then processing them differently.
This mixed peppery cocktail sauce is great to be served with roasted veggies or can be used as a stir fry sauce. I make it all the time for my vegetarian friends. Its got a kick from the peppercorns but is well regulated with white vinegar, tomato ketchup and honey. Trust me, you do not need to reduce the amount of peppercorn.

MIXED PEPPER CORN SAUCE
(Adapted from Sanjeev kapoor’s Volcanic Pepper sauce)
Ingredients:
1/4 cup mixed peppercorn
1/2 cup olive oil
2 shallots
12 cloves of garlic
ginger-same amount as garlic
1 cup tomato ketchup
1/2 cup white vinegar
6 tsp honey
3 tbsp gluten free soy sauce*
2 tsp salt
mushroom and some butter or olive oil
*Add only 2tbsp if you are using regular dark soy sauce

Method:
Lightly toast the peppercorns. Grind them to the required consistency.

Roughly chop ginger, garlic and shallots. Heat oil in a pan Add shallots, saute for a minute. Add ginger and garlic. Cook till the edges starts showing some color.

Add tomato ketchup and mix. Add vinegar,sugar,soy sauce and salt. Mix well. Lastly add your ground mixed peppercorn. Give it a nice stir.


Remove from heat. Let it cool for 10minutes. Grind the sauce in a blender.
TO SERVE:
Heat a tbsp olive oil or butter in a non stick pan.

Pan fry the mushrooms lightly.

Store the left over in a glass bottle. It can be kept in fridge for 15 days. I never tried keeping it longer as it is consumed with in that period.

    Wow – this looks delciious, and seems so simple too. But knowing me and my clumsiness I would probably still mess it up. Thanks for sharing!
