Modern Georgian

Padrón Peppers, Labneh, Chilli Crumb

Blistered peppers over thick strained yoghurt with a spiced crumb, plated as a ring so every spoon gets all three.

Blistered padrón peppers over labneh with a red chilli crumb in a black bowl, ringed by raw green peppers

Cold yoghurt under hot peppers is the whole dish. If the base warms up it turns loose and the plate becomes a sauce.

Peppers have to go in a pan hotter than feels sensible so they blister before they soften, and the roulette of one hot pepper in ten is a feature, not a fault.
