Roasted Red Peppers with Tomatoes
This dish assaults the eyes and the tastebuds, and can be served to vegetarians and vegans if the anchovies are omitted. I usually serve it as a starter, but it could be served as a side dish and it is no problem to increase the quantities.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: Between 50 and 60 minutes at 180°C
Makes: 2 servings
Ingredients
2 red peppers
2 or 3 tomatoes
1 clove of garlic
4 anchovy fillets
4 dessertspoons extra virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
Basil leaves to garnish
Method
Cut the peppers into halves and remove the seeds and any white pith.
Place, skin down, into a solid, shallow, roasting tin. My grill pan works well.
Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for a minute, then slide off the skins and cut into quarters.
Divide the tomatoes between the peppers.
Drain the anchovies, snip them into shorter lengths and add them to the peppers, along with the peeled and sliced garlic slivers.
Grind some black pepper on top and drizzle with the olive oil.
Roast for 50 minutes or 1 hour on a high shelf until the edges of the peppers start to blacken.
Serve garnished with fresh basil leaves.
