ROASTED RED PEPPERS WITH FETA, CAPERS AND PRESERVED LEMONS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill (broiler) on the hottest setting and roast the peppers under the grill, turning frequently.
• When they are softened and their skins begin to blacken place them in a plastic bag, seal and leave to stand for 15 minutes.
• Peel the peppers, remove the stalks and seeds then slice the flesh and arrange on a plate.
• Add the crumbled feta and pour over the olive oil, scatter the capers and preserved lemons over the top.
• Sprinkle with a little salt if required.

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH FETA

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH LEMON RICOTTA

Steps:

• Center a rack in the oven, and heat it to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. Rinse the peppers, pat them dry and place them on the pan. Roast the peppers, turning every 10 minutes, until their skins are black and blistered, 40 minutes, more or less. Transfer the peppers to a heatproof bowl, cover and, when they're cool enough to handle, peel off the skins. Remove the caps, cut each pepper in quarters or halves and remove and discard the seeds. Lightly brush the peppers with oil; use now, or cover closely and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
• Scrape the ricotta into a bowl, and mix with a spatula to smoothen. Grate the lemon zest over the ricotta, squeeze in about 1 tablespoon of the juice and add the preserved lemon rind, if you're using it. Pour in a few teaspoons of olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Use now, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
• To serve, spoon or spread the lemon ricotta on a platter or individual plates, and drizzle with olive oil. Top with peppers, and brush or drizzle with olive oil and either sherry or balsamic vinegar. Finish with a sprinkling of chives or basil.

ROASTED FETA WITH OLIVES AND RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Cut cheese into 1/2-inch-thick slices and divide evenly among 4 small flameproof baking dishes (or arrange in 1 layer in a large one). Sprinkle oregano and pepper over cheese.
• Stir together roasted peppers, olives, and oil in a small bowl, then spoon mixture over and around cheese.
• Broil 2 to 4 inches from heat until edges of cheese are golden, about 5 minutes.

ROASTED PEPPER & FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash peppers and lay them in a baking dish. Pour the olive oil over the peppers and bake for about 35 minutes, until wilted and beginning to turn brown. Remove peppers from oven and cover with foil or a towel. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. Carefully remove as much peel as you can from the peppers; discard. Some peel may be stubborn and remain - that's ok. Remove the centers and seeds also.
• Cut peppers into 1-inch pieces and add to a large bowl. Add parsley, feta, lemon zest, and the oil that the peppers cooked in. Toss and serve.
• Keeps refrigerated for about two days. I think the salad tastes best served closer to room temperature.

• While cauliflower roasts, whisk together lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large serving bowl, then add remaining 1/2 cup oil in a slow stream, whisking.
