Background
Peperonata is a classic Italian dish of stewed sweet peppers, onions and tomatoes. The classic recipe is made on the stove using red wine vinegar - I baked it and used balsamic vinegar. Also I added spicy mixed Italian herbs to jazz it up. This roasted peperonata can be served as a side dish or mixed with pasta, rice, couscous it becomes a zingy, healthy dish. You can whiz it up in a blender into a rustic soup or pasta sauce too!

- 1 red pepper
- 1 yellow pepper

- Small handful of basil leaves or parsley

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
