To prepare a delicious vegetable-based dish, start by cleaning the peppers, onion, and garlic, cutting all the ingredients into small pieces. These are the base of the recipe, and choosing the right vegetables will influence the final taste of the dish. Choose bell peppers, sweet or even spicy, depending on personal preferences and how spicy you want the dish to be. Once the vegetables are ready, you have two options to continue.
In the first option, add the peppers, diced tomatoes, and chopped onion to a blender. These vegetables will form a flavorful puree that will serve as the base for your dish. Add a cup of tomato juice and blend well until you achieve a homogeneous mixture. After obtaining this paste, add the bay leaves, sugar, vinegar, and wine. These ingredients will bring depth of flavor, and the aroma will be delightful. Continuing, add the rest of the tomato juice, crushed garlic, thyme, and tarragon, all added to taste. Mix the mixture well, and finally, incorporate the meat broth to give it a rich flavor. Transfer everything to a heat-resistant dish and place it in the preheated oven, allowing it to bake uncovered at medium heat until the mixture reduces by half. A few minutes before removing it, add freshly chopped herbs and check the taste, seasoning with salt and pepper.
In the second option, leave the vegetables whole or cut into larger pieces, adding the rest of the ingredients directly into the baking dish. Leave everything in the oven until the vegetables are almost done and the juice has significantly reduced. Add the finely chopped herbs and adjust the taste with salt and pepper.
Regardless of the chosen option, this dish is delicious served hot, either on its own or alongside a juicy steak. The flavors combine perfectly, and the food becomes a feast for the senses. Enjoy your meal!
