Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Red Pepper Sauce.
Step 1
To create a delicious red bell pepper cream sauce, start by placing your vibrant red bell pepper chunks and rich heavy cream into a pot.
Step 2
Set the heat to medium and watch as the mixture comes to a gentle boil, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 3
Once it’s bubbling, lower the heat to medium-low and let it simmer.

This is where the magic happens—stir occasionally and allow the cream to reduce down to about one cup, which should take around 30 minutes.
Step 5
As you wait, take a moment to enjoy the colors and scents that are developing.

When the sauce has thickened beautifully, remove the pot from the heat.

Now, it’s time to add a burst of flavor! Stir in the smoky paprika, zesty lemon juice, a pinch of salt, a dash of white pepper, and a hint of cayenne pepper.
Step 8
Mix everything together until it’s well combined and you can’t resist tasting it.
Step 9
Next, carefully pour the sauce into a blender.
Step 10
To avoid any splashes, secure the lid with a towel and start blending.
