    If you're into dieting at the moment, they are nice just sliced up thinly and served with other crudities such as thinly sliced carrots, celery, radishes.
  • Thanks for all your replies! I have chopped them, and they are in the freezer (after open freezing them first) I'm then going to use in stews etc, but will try a sweet and sour too!

    Thanks again

    Hello

    I've got a glut of mainly red peppers, and need some inspiration if you good people would be willing to share your ideas?

    I've already thought of a pasta sauce, but haven't been able to find a simple on on the internet, so does anyone have a recipe they can share with me?

    Many thanks.
  • I like them grilled (skin side up) till charred, skin comes off fairly easily at this stage, then marinaded in olive oil and garlic vinegar. Will keep like this for at least a week, probably longer, and lovely with bread or couscous. Probably would work as part of a pasta sauce too, whizzed up with some tinned tomatos and cooked for a bit.

    That's basically roasted peppers and god they're tasty!

    Google pasta and roasted peppers and you'll get loads of recipes.

    Thats where I've been going wrong - I just googled red peppers & pasta, and didn't get a great deal back, but now I've just googled ROASTED peppers there's more options!

    Many thanks for your replies so far!!
