Abundance of peppers

Can anybody tell me how long I should roast vegetables for?

Ive only ever used peppers in casseroles and stir frys etc.

Ive got an abundance of various coloured peppers and some feta cheese and thought id oven roast them with some mushrooms and onion and add feta cubes but not sure how long to do them for?

    Depends on quite what you're cooking but there's a nice recipe similar to what you have in mind (well it is if you swap the meat for feta :))...

    I usually cut into quaters, lightly oil and roast at top heat for about 30-40mins or until they are just beginning to char. Peppers are great in tossed salads and savoury rice dishes. I even eat them like you would an apple.

    I do as MATH does ...

    ... but you can also make stuffed peppers :drool: Basically, slice off the top, scoop out the seeds and fill with a rice or breadcrumb mix of your choice. D-Lish!

    My friend introduced me to roasted vegetables, she does them for 20 minutes.
    We had them last Sunday, and I used onions, garlic, courgettes, peppers (did I put carrots in this time? ... oh well, if not then I do sometimes)
    Drizzle over some olive oil, season well with lots of black pepper, some salt, & italian seasoning (or just basil if I've run out)
    20 minutes in the top of the oven. Yummy!

    There's nothing in our Index that says it's stuffed peppers. A google on

    "stuffed pepper"+recipe

    exactly as written brings up a few choices :)

    roasted vegetables are lovely, specially if you drizzle oil, garlic and mixed herbs on prior to cooking. a sweet potato in mixed veg is really good too.

    as for the peppers, why not suff them with simply cubed bacon and grated cheese. (you should prob cook the bacon first), then stuff them, pop the top back on and roast them in the oven.

    alternatively marinade a chicken breast in cajun spices and a little oil. cook it off, slice thinly and put with peppers and sour cream in a sandwich.

    ideally accompaniment for any food is :beer:

    Hells bells lol what a boring food life I seem to lead!! Id like to come to some of your houses for tea!! Think I need to get out of my food rut. Seem to have same things for tea every week. My excuse is I work about 30 hours a week and often if I try something new and it doesnt turn out well it discourages me from trying any more but you lot have given me some more inspiration.....cheers! :beer:

    With the red ones I deseed them and cut them into quarters. Boil for 10 mins and then blitz up with garlic cloves to suit personal taste, lemon juice, S& P and oil if required and serve as a pasta sauce. I've also recently added a recipe for pasta and peppers to the recipes thread
