Meal Three - Piedmontese Peppers


As I was behind in the meal to day ratio, I thought I'd better spend some of today catching up.

The first thing I went for was a dish I saw on Saturday kitchen by "The Good Cook" - Simon Hopkinson.
It was on this very morning and when I saw it, I immediately thought, "I've got to try that!"

Everything in this dish is packed full of flavour. It's very Italian in influence and I wonder whether you would have found me peddling street food on the streets of Rome in a former life.

How can you go wrong with the richness of the roasted peppers and tomatoes, with the garlic slices poaching in the juices and olive oil.
Topped off with a basil leaf and a couple anchovy fillets, this is a proper snack!

I served it with a cheese and onion bread roll to mop up all of those juices!



Ingredients:

2 red peppers, halved with stalk left on
4 ripened plum tomatoes, halved (with skins taken off)
4 cloves of garlic
Extra virgin olive oil
8 anchovy fillets
Fresh basil leaves

Bread roll of choice
