The Roasting of the Peppers



Another vegetable that is very tasty and healthy is the Red Pepper. Very rich in vitamin C. I like them raw and cooked. I bought a huge bag of red and yellow ones the other day on special, so I decided to roast them. It's so easy.

Just put them in a roasting pan and roast them at 180°C for about 45 minutes. Turn them round every 15 minutes or so. When they come out they will be soft and covered with brown spots.
                                                                                 














Place them in a bowl covered with Clingfilm, OR in a plastic bag and leave until completely cool. You can now remove the skins and seeds easily. Slice up in a bowl and dress with olive oil and lemon juice. I like to mix with olives. You can also purée and use as a dip, or use as an ingredient in a myriad other recipes.
