Ingredients:  
2 red peppers
2 yellow peppers
salt
cayenne pepper
4 garlic cloves, peeled
100 ml (3 1/2 fluid oz.) extra virgin olive oil
50 ml (2 fluid oz.) red wine vinegar)
50g (1 3/4 oz.) crumbled goat cheese
16 black olives, stoned
1 small bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked from the stalks
Directions:
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- Cut each pepper in half lengthways, remove the seeds and cut them in half again. Lay them skin side up on a roasting tray, and season well. Press the garlic cloves lightly but don't crush them, and add to the peppers in the tray. Pour over the olive oil and vinegar, cover the tray with foil, and put it in the oven. Braise the peppers for 45 minutes until they are completely soft. Lift off the foil and transfer them to a bowl. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and leave for about 15 minutes.
- Next skin the peppers, but if any of the skins are really stubborn don't worry too much. Just leave them or you will end up with no peppers.
- To finish the vinaigrette, remove the whole garlic cloves from the tray, and crush in a bowl. Whisk in the cooking juices, and season well with salt and cayenne pepper. Pour this over the roasted peppers and serve with the goat cheese, olives and flat-leaf parsley.
