Ingredients:

  • 2 large vine tomatoes, skinned and chopped
  • 2 tbsp dry white wine
  • 1-2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 3 large red peppers
  • 150g ricotta cheese
  • salt and pepper
  • small handful basil leaves, finely chopped
  • 3-6 sprays of Fry Light Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Method For Stuffed Peppers With Ricotta And Basil:

How To Make:

  1. Firstly, put the chopped tomatoes into a small pan with the wine and garlic. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes or until they become soft and pulpy. Sieve the tomato sauce and season.
  2. Meanwhile place the peppers under a grill and cook, turning until blistered and blackened all over. 
  3. Put into a plastic bag and leave to cool. Carefully remove the skin. Cut each pepper into quarters lengthways removing the seeds.

Heat The Oven:

Heat the oven to 200C/400F/gas 6. Season the ricotta cheese with salt and pepper and mix in the basil. Take a heaped teaspoon of the mixture and place at the narrow end of each pepper, place a scant teaspoon of chopped tomato on top. Roll up and place in an ovenproof dish.

Spray each pepper 3 times with Fry Light, then put the dish into the oven to heat through for 10 minutes. While the peppers are in the oven, gently re-heat the tomato sauce before serving with the stuffed peppers. Serve with extra basil leaves to garnish.
