2 medium red peppers
2 medium yellow peppers
450g / 1lb courgettes, quite thinly sliced [Shel will be able to tell us
for sure, but I think courgettes are zucchini.]
2 tablespoons olive oil
450g / 1lb cherry tomatoes, halved
2 garlic cloves, crushed
pinch mixed herbs
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Recipe
Halve the peppers, cutting right through the stem so that half of it
remains intact on each pepper half. Trim away the core and seeds
carefully. Place the pepper halves shiny-side up under a hot grill and
cook for 10 - 15 minutes, until tender and charred in places. Remove and
leave to one side.
Sprinkle the courgettes with the olive oil and turn them with your
fingers so that they are evenly coated. Grill for 5 - 10 minutes, until
browned and tender. Transfer the courgettes to a bowl and put the
tomatoes under the grill for about 5 minutes, until tender and charred
in places. Add to the courgettes.
Add the garlic, mixed herbs, and salt and pepper to the courgettes and
tomatoes. Mix gently, then spoon the mixture into the pepper halves.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
It serves 4, is easy to make and tastes delicious.
Notes
This is also delicious with mushrooms in place of the courgettes (about
6oz will do the job, closed cup mushrooms cut into quarters are good).
This recipe goes very well with steamed broccoli dressed with fresh
lemon juice, boiled new potatoes with a knob of vegan marge, and a big
glass of chilled white wine! Yum!
