Ingredients:

Serving

1 large yellow bell pepper
2 scallions, trimmed and finely chopped (white and green part )
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp distilled white vinegar (or more to taste)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper (or to taste)
salt and pepper

Directions:

Preheat grill to high.
Place pepper on grate and grill until black on all sides, 4-6 minutes per side.
Transfer to a plate and let cool.
Scrape off the burnt skin. It's okay if you don't get all of it.
Stem and seed the pepper, and cut into 1 pieces.
Place pieces in a food processor or blender.
Add all remaining ingredients.
Puree to a smooth paste.
You should be able to pour the sauce. If it is too thick to pour, mix in a little water.
Serve at room temperature.
Can be stored, covered and refrigerated, for up to 1 week.
