This week's bright and colourful French Fridays with Dorie dish is Roasted Peppers. Yes, it is simple, but it is very tasty.
Basically, you just roast capsicums (peppers) of your choosing for an hour, then peel off the blistered skin, scrape out the seeds, slice into pieces, and season with olive oil, salt and pepper. You may also sprinkle some fresh herbs on top (I used parsley and basil). Not bad!
You can eat these as a starter, or as a side, or chop them up and inlcude them in another dish.

I'm crazy for roasted capsicum. I usually put them in a plastic bag after roasting them as it makes taking the skins off easier!
ReplyDeleteAfter last week's salmon, it was nice to have an easy one this week!
ReplyDeleteI like the bright colors of those peppers.
Damn delicious and colorfull roasted pepper!!!
ReplyDeletelovin it all the way, pesto, marinara,you name it...
the photograph is really seducing me....
Weren't these easy? Like Lorraine, I also put these in a plastic bag after roasting to help steam the skins. I can't believe I have never made these before - won't be the last time!
ReplyDeletethey look lovely - using lots of coloured capsicums always looks so pretty - and I love roasted capsicums
ReplyDeleteI love roasted peppers :) They take a bit of effort but taste so good!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!! Love how vibrant your peppers are!
ReplyDeleteLooking colorful! It was easy but left me with a messy kitchen!
ReplyDeleteFirst time roasting peppers, it was okay. Let's see what I can do with the balance.
Colourful and delicious, and super healthy too :D

Roasted capsicum sounds so much fancier than roasted peppers! I made a few blunders, but they were still delicious!
ReplyDeleteThese were really delicious and so vibrant! Yours look lovely! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteThis is something I have done for a number of years now, we love them. They certainly are colorful and
ReplyDeletepretty.
My list of things it's better to make at home has grown a lot in this group. Roasted peppers are definitely on it. I love how colourful yours look on the plate.
ReplyDeleteEasy and delicious indeed. Your plate looks fabulous. Nana will now be getting some competition in preparing these at home :) I can't believe I never made these before- leave it to French Fridays....
ReplyDeleteWhat a colorful plate of peppers (capsicums)! I love how we have different names for some of the vegetables here and there :) I can't remember. Do you also eat courgettes and aubergines where we have zucchini and eggplants?
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy, we have zucchini and eggplants too - the Brits have courgettes and aubergines.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that I was not the only one who ignored the green pepper rule. We liked these too. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteThis was a good one, wasn't it? So simple yet so delicious!
ReplyDeleteYours looks pretty and delicious, Gaye. I think you even roasted a green pepper. Is that right. How did it taste. Dorie said they weren't as sweet as the others. Capsicum. Love that word.
ReplyDeleteOh these roasted peppers are the best photo you have ever taken...or maybe they are just the most photogenic. They look beautiful...pure art!
