So, what exactly is a coulis? A coulis (pronounced kool-ee) is nothing more than a fancy French name for a thick sauce made from pureed vegetables or fruit that has been strained. This is the base sauce for the brunch dish but is an excellent and a very versatile sauce on its own. It is great as a condiment for most proteins, like beef, chicken or pork, or as a sauce for vegetables. It is a very simple sauce to make and can be made ahead of time for the upcoming special dish. I hope you enjoy.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><u><b>Roasted Red Pepper Coulis<\/b><\/u><\/div>\n<p>\n<u>Ingredients:<\/u><\/p>\n<p>2 cups red pepper, roasted<br \/>\n2 tsp. olive oil, reserve 1 tsp. <br \/>\n1\/2 cup onion, diced<br \/>\n1 Tbsp. garlic, minced<br \/>\n1 tsp. dried oregano<br \/>\n1 Tbsp. fresh cilantro or 1 tsp. dried cilantro<br \/>\n1 cup heavy cream<br \/>\nsalt and pepper<\/p>\n<p>Preheat oven to 400&#8242;<\/p>\n<p>Seed the red peppers and cut into strips.
