Background

Peperonata is a classic Italian dish of stewed sweet peppers, onions and tomatoes. It's absolutely fantastic because it's yummy, healthy, easy to make and so versatile - it can be used as pasta sauce; pizza or bruschetta topping; filling in a sandwich or burger; etc etc! It could be served with fried egg for brunch or as a side-dish with a Sunday roast and with grilled/barbecued meat and so on. The classic recipe is made with raw, ripe chopped tomatoes - this version uses passata.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
2 tsp red wine vinegar
500 ml passata
2 Tbsp black olives (optional)
small handful of basil leaves
salt & pepper

Instructions

Thinly slice the onion and the garlic.
Heat the oil in a pan and soften the onion (for about 5 minutes).
Meanwhile, slice the peppers into 1cm thick strips, then add these to the onion together with the garlic.
Simmer under cover for 5 minutes, then add the vinegar and the passata. Cover and cook for about 20 minutes until tender.
Stir in the olives and basil leaves. Serve warm.
