1 - How To Roast Capsicum Peppers
Part of the reason why there aren't a tonne of capsicum recipes is because whenever I see buy them I just roast them and eat them this way! Roasting brings out the sweetness of capsicum and they're great to add to sandwiches and salads.
2 - Basque Piperade
I first tried this piperade at a restaurant and it was so delicious I had to recreate it at home! Capsicums and tomatoes are cooked down and make a delicious, healthy and wholesome dish for lunch or dinner. I love the runny egg that gives it a creamy texture. This is Mr NQN's favourite capsicum dish!
3 - Red Pepper Dip
This red pepper dip was inspired by Muhammarra and one batch makes 1.5 - 2cups of this dip. It's so much cheaper than buying a dip and you know what is in it. Plus it takes 5 minutes to make!
4 - Turkish Menemen Eggs
When we visited Turkey I knew that we had to try Menemen when we were there. It's a delicious breakfast dish made with eggs, capsicum, tomato and cheese. All you need is some soft pide bread!
5 - Stuffed Peppers
I love these stuffed peppers because they use a base of chicken and corn rather than using rice. I used poblano peppers for these stuffed peppers but you can definitely use any capsicums and slice the top off.
So tell me Dear Reader, how do you usually cook capsicum peppers?
