Grilled Red Peppers
I adore making this dish, and relish eating it even more. The flavour of peppers intensifies with heat and the colours become even more inviting. Although I have used red peppers, you can also use yellow and orange, although green are taboo for this recipe. A mixture of colours makes everything more interesting and eye-catching. The peppers can be served as a side dish, or as part of a selection of antipasti.
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Makes: 4 servings
Ingredients
2 red peppers, or any other colour you fancy. Add more peppers to feed more people.
Olive oil for drizzling
Method
Pre-heat the grill to a high setting.
Cut the peppers into halves.
Remove the seeds and any white bits of pith.
Place on a baking sheet, skin side up.
Drizzle with olive oil.
Put under the grill, removing once or twice to turn the peppers around so that the skin is evenly blackened.
Remove and put into a sealed plastic bag.
Leave until cool enough to handle (unless you have asbestos fingers), then peel off the skins.
Slice into strips.
Drizzle with olive oil.
