Ingredients
- 6 (6 ) Red pepper large
- 2 (2 ) Garlic bulbs
- ¼ cup (60 ml) Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Roast Red Peppers
- Wash and clean red peppers
- Cut in half and de-seed
- Line a baking tray with aluminium foil
- Place peppers skin side down on the foiled tray
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200 C / 400 F for about 30 minutes turning them skin side up about half way thru
- When roasted the skin will be black.
- Take it out from the oven
- Leave them on the baking tray lined with aluminum foil
- Gather the corners of the aluminum foil up overwrapping the red peppers completely
- Let cool wrapped for about 10 minutes - this will help the skin just peel off the peppers.
- After 10 minutes skin the red peppers - cooling them wrapped helps separate the skin from the flesh.
Roast Garlic
- Leave the garlic bulbs skin on.
- Cut off the tail end slightly so you expose the garlic (see picture below)
- Place them on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap the bulbs
- Add a tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle salt and pepper
- Wrap the garlic bulbs into foil
- Place in the oven with the red peppers at 200 C / 400 F for about 30 mins.
- After 30 minutes take them off the oven and let cool in the foil
- Once cooled it's easy to just pick the garlic off the bull into a small bowl.
- Two bulbs should make about ¼ cup
Make the Tapenade
- Place the red peppers and roasted garlic in a food processor
- Pulse for a few seconds
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Then pour in the olive oil slowly while still processing.
- Taste for seasoning before you transfer to a jar
- Place in the fridge until ready to use.
- This will stay fresh in the fridge for up to two weeks.
