Total Time20 minutes mins
Servings: 4
- 8 - 10 Turkish green peppers Sivri Biber
- Olive oil
- Sea salt flakes
- 100g feta cheese
- 1 tbsp chopped coriander
- 1 tbsp chopped mint
Summer Dressing
- ½ tsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp neutral oil
- 1 spring onion, minced
- ½ tsp grated ginger
- 1 tsp lime rind
- 2 tsp lime juice
- 1.5 tbsp pineapple juice, or orange juice
- 1 tbsp coriander chopped
- 1 tbsp mint chopped
Combine all summer dressing ingredients and set aside.
Rub peppers in oil and season with salt.
Using a bbq, stove stop griddle pan or sandwich press, grill peppers until charred and soft.
When the flesh is soft and has a good char, transfer peppers to a bowl, cover in clingfilm, and let them rest for 5 minutes. During this time they will collapse, soften further and become juicier.
To finish the dish, layer peppers on a plate and drizzle with summer dressing. Garnish with crumbled feta and a little more coriander and mint.
