I'm very happy that this, orignally Italian, recipe which has traveled here in Europe through several countries and cookbooks has made it into our kitchens. An excellent starter, side, lunch or buffet dish. They should be served warm but we like them just as much cold!When you serve this as a single dish, have a nice Italian bread with it.

    Fantastic, bought back memories of a dish I had in Sicily years ago. I added a few dashes of balsamic vinegar to the peppers before roasting them and this seems to intensify even more the flavors.... was going to suggest that any left-overs could be liquidifed (minus the pepper stalks) to make a tasty sauce for pasta. but, honestly, it is so good there is unlikely to be anything left. thanks

    This is a fantastic dish. The aroma while cooking is fantastic. I have even had anchovy haters love this dish. If your still nervous to use anchovies, use sun dried tomatoes in its place.
