Massa De Pimentao (Red Paprika Paste) image

This is a popular condiment in Portugal to accompany meat, poultry, fish, specifically grilled. It keeps for about 2 weeks in an airtight jar in the fridge. Preparation time does not include 24 hours marinating time. Cooking time is a guess - depends on your oven grill. You can also grill the garlic, too.
