  1. For an even simpler (gluten-free) dish, swap the olives, artichokes and ciabatta for halved cherry tomatoes. Or cook the peppers on the barbecue, half-wrapped in foil at step 2 – it adds a fabulous smoky flavour.

  1. I really enjoyed these peppers, the roasting of them makes them so sweet and flavourful, it really concentrates the taste, I roasted mine for about 20 minutes rather than grilling as I just prefer to do them that way. A winning starter or side dish, they also taste great if you eat them at room temperature the next day (leave the croutons off if you are preparing in advance. I can’t get enough of these!
