  1. Put the peppers, red onion and garlic in a bowl. Add the oil and mix well.

  3. Stir in the cumin, paprika and oregano and cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, scatter over the coriander and season well.
  4. Meanwhile, to make the salsa, mix all the ingredients in a bowl, season and set aside.
