How to make it

  • Roast the peppers on the grill till the skin blisters and gets charred , turning a couple of times.
  • Put into a baggie and allow to cool.
  • Once cool, remove the skin and wash seeds out . Cut the peppers into strips.
  • Put them into a clean jar with the garlic, top with olive oil, just enough to immerse them
  • Season with salt if desired. Refrigerate until ready to use. Keeps for 5-7days.
  • For the toast:
  • Preheat the oven to 180deg C
  • Slice the buns fine. Brush with olive oil from the jar of preserved peppers.
  • Toast on rack under grill till browned, approximately 10 minutes, watching closely so they don't burn.
  • Cool on cookie racks, and store in an airtight tin.
  • To serve:
  • Lay out the toasts on platter. Top with few strips of both coloured peppers, sprinkle with freshly chopped basil leaves. Enjoy!!
  • Makes approximately 24 toasts.

    What a great idea! I bet that it would work with jarred roasted red peppers too if you wanted to have them in a hurry. Just skip the roasting and peeling and go right to the marinade.

    I wish we grilled more often, 'cause this looks great. I'm saving it anyway; my husband is a notionate critter, he may decide to grill without advance notice!
