Sounds great! What do you consider high on an oven? Thanks :)


Hi :)
I just whack the oven up to top temperature - I want the peppers to roast and I think a lower heat may make them stew a bit. They are still nice and soft when they come out!


Thanks! Sounds very flavorful.


This sounds great!


This looks fantastic, I love the idea of adding cinammon - thanks.


I really hope you enjoy it :)
