Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large red or yellow bell peppers, preferably Holland
2 tablespoons good olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons drained capers
1 large ciabatta bread, halved horizontally

8 to 10 large basil leaves
3 thin slices red onion
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.

Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil and vinegar mixture over the peppers. Stir in the capers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend.
  • To assemble the sandwiches, spread the bottom half of the loaf with the goat cheese. Add a layer of peppers and then a layer of basil leaves. Separate the onions into rings and spread out on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with the top half of the ciabatta and cut into individual servings.

Sweet caramelised vegetables and paprika cream top this lovely tart - cut into bite-sized pieces as part of a tapas spread

Provided by Lizzie Harris

Categories     Buffet, Canapes, Side dish, Snack, Starter, Supper

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

375g sheet all-butter puff pastry
3 tbsp olive oil
1 red onion , finely chopped
1 large fennel bulb , core removed, finely chopped
1 romano pepper , deseeded and finely chopped
2 garlic cloves , crushed
2 eggs , plus 1 yolk
200ml double cream
100ml milk
½ tsp sweet paprika
100g goat's cheese
12 olives , pitted
caper berries , to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Roll out the pastry onto a floured surface to the thickness of a £1 coin. Use to line a 20 x 3.5cm deep loose-based tart tin. Prick the base with a fork, cover and chill for 30 mins, or put in the freezer for 15 mins.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line the pastry with baking parchment and fill with baking beans (or dried rice or beans). Put the tin on a baking sheet and bake for 15 mins. Remove the parchment and beans and cook for another 8-10 mins until a pale biscuit colour. Turn the oven down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a large pan, heat the oil over a medium heat, add the onion, fennel and pepper, and cook for about 15 mins until soft and beginning to caramelise. Add the garlic and cook for a few mins more. Allow to cool.
  • Lightly whisk the eggs, cream and milk together, then add the paprika and some seasoning. Tip the veg into the tart shell and dot over with cheese and olives. Pour over the eggs, then put the tin in the oven. Bake the tart for 20-25 mins until golden and set. Cool on a wire rack, then remove from the tin and cut into slices. Serve with caper berries scattered around, if you like. This can be eaten at room temperature or reheated later.

2 large red bell peppers
2 large yellow bell peppers
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 lemon, juice of
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
6 sprigs fresh thyme
salt
freshly ground pepper
12 black olives

  • Arrange peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake until blackened and soft, 25-30 minutes, turning once or twice.
  • Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let stand 10 minutes (this helps steam the peppers in their skins, and makes skin removal easier).

  • While peppers are still hot, slip off the skin and scrape out seeds; remove stems.
  • Cut each pepper into quarters.
  • Add roasted peppers to the marinade and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
  • To serve, arrange peppers on 4 plates, garnish with olives, oranges and remaining thyme, and crumble goat cheese over and season with additional freshly ground pepper.
  • Note: instead of all red wine vinegar, you can use 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar and 1 teaspoon balsamic, for even deeper and sweeter flavor. Chopped basil is also a delicious garnish.

MARINATED GOAT CHEESE

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, dips and spreads

Time 15m

Yield 4 or 5 rounds of marinated goat cheese

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon mixed red, black and white peppercorns, lightly crushed
2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 bay leaves, broken into pieces
About 3 ounces goat cheese (in a log)
2 sprigs thyme
2 sprigs rosemary
Extra virgin olive oil as needed

Steps:

  • Place the peppercorns, garlic cloves and bay leaves in a clean, sterilized wide-mouthed jar. Pour in a film of olive oil.
  • Cut the goat cheese into rounds 1/2 inch thick (I get neat rounds using unflavored dental floss to cut through the cheese). Place one round in the jar and drizzle on some olive oil. Stack the remaining rounds, drizzling oil onto each round before topping with the next. Add the thyme and rosemary sprigs to the jar and pour in olive oil to cover the goat cheese rounds completely. Cover the jar and leave at room temperature for several hours, then refrigerate.
