Scallops with sweet & spicy pepper sauce

Step 2 Making the sauce

Method:

1. Chop the garlic, onion and pepper. I went for fine dice, but if you're blending the sauce chunky is fine.
2. Gently fry to onion in the saucepan with a little oil until it starts to go translucent, then add the garlic and pepper. (don't add the garlic with the onion or it will cook to quickly, burn and make the sauce a little bitter) cook until the veggies have softened.
3. Add all the other sauce ingredients, stir thoroughly, bring to a gentle simmer for 5-10 minutes or so until slightly reduced.
4. Blend the sauce with a hand blender
