Romesco sauce is a traditional all-purpose sauce from Catalonia, Spain. It has a sweet-tart flavor and is packed with the delicious taste of vegetables, pairing well not only with roasted vegetables but also with salads, fish, and meat dishes. This version uses tomato purée instead of fresh tomatoes, making it easier to prepare.

Cut the red bell pepper in half lengthwise, remove the stem and seeds, then cut it in half lengthwise again.

Wrap the garlic in aluminum foil with the skin on. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place the red bell pepper on it skin-side up, and add the foil-wrapped garlic. Bake in the preheated 450°F (230°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the pepper skin is blackened. Let cool slightly, then peel the garlic and remove the charred skin and thin outer skin from the pepper.
