Notes
Roasting bell peppers: I used the same skillet to roast the bell pepper and to make the recipe.
Simply place the bell peppers on a hot skillet to char. It takes a few minutes since we don't leave them to darken too much. A few spots here and there are great! It's more for the smoky flavor.
You can let them cool, cut, discard seeds and continue with the recipe. If you're using the smaller peppers (snack bell peppers) they are not only sweeter, they also char in seconds on a hot skillet!
Che Gochujang Chili Paste
Gochujang paste is a Korean condiment that's a deep red color, slightly sweet and spicy that you can find in your Asian stores or Woolworths SA. Like all things, if you haven't used it before taste it to decide on how much you want to add.
There is no one substitute for it but if you can't find it then you can use Sriracha chili but remember it will not taste the same.
Sausage Type
Any sausage works in this recipe, you can even use chorizo, Italian sausage, Mexican or Spanish chorizo, lamb, beef or pork with pork giving more flavor from the fat. You can also combine the type of sausages or use one type and add bacon, the options are many!
