Calçots con Salsa Romesco

romesco sauce

🥗Healthier: salsa verde

💰Cheaper: tomato sauce

Salsa verde offers a fresh flavor while being lighter.

Prepare the grill for high heat.

Clean the calçots by removing the outer layer and trimming the roots.

Drizzle olive oil over the calçots and season with salt and black pepper.

Place the calçots on the grill and cook until charred, about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.

Remove the calçots when they are tender and charred.

Wrap the cooked calçots in newspaper to keep warm.

Prepare the romesco sauce by blending roasted red peppers, almonds, garlic, and olive oil until smooth.

Serve the calçots with romesco sauce on the side.

Garnish with fresh lemon wedges and chopped parsley.

Accompany with crusty bread for dipping.
