Caprese Salad With Peppers Food

CAPRESE SALAD WITH GRILLED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly onto a naked gas flame or under a very hot grill and let them blacken and blister.
• Turn now and then with a pair of metal kitchen tongs. When blackened all over, pop them into a bowl and cover with clingfilm.
• Leave the peppers to steam for about 10 minutes, then remove the clingfilm and leave them to cool.
• When they are cool enough to handle, rub off the blackened skin and brush away the seeds from the inside.
• Tear the mozzarella balls into chunks and divide between 4 plates. Tear the peppers into strips and divide over the plates of mozzarella. Halve the tomatoes and scatter over the top.
• Season well with sea salt and black pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Pick and tear up the basil leaves and sprinkle them over the salad before serving.
