Introduction from Rukmini Iyer

Stuffed peppers – retro or fantastic? As with pineapple upside-down cake, I think they are both. These lovely parcels, stuffed with rich artichokes and feta, are a far cry from the ones that turned up in school dinners, and show just how lovely stuffed vegetables can be.

Ingredients

4 long red peppers, halved lenthways and deseeded
1 x 280g jar of artichokes, roughly chopped
200g feta cheese, crumbled
100g pine nuts
freshly ground black pepper
25g fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 lemon, zest and juice
50g breadcrumbs
1 tbsp olive oil
To serve:
focaccia or good bread
crunchy green salad

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C fan/220°C/gas 7. Arrange the halved peppers in a lined roasting tin with plenty of room around them.

Mix the artichokes, feta cheese, pine nuts, black pepper, parsley, lemon zest and juice and half the breadcrumbs, and stuff the mixture into the halved peppers.

Top with the remaining breadcrumbs, drizzle over the olive oil, then transfer to the oven to roast for 30–35 minutes, until the peppers are softened and slightly charred around the edges and the topping is crisp and golden.

Serve hot, with a crunchy green salad and good bread alongside.
