To roast peppers
Remove skin from peppers by cutting in half and roasting, skin side up, under a grill until the skin is scorched. Place in a plastic bag for a few minutes and when cool the skin should peel off. Slice the peppers thinly and place on a tray with a drizzle of olive oil. Bake in a hot oven gas mark 6/ 160C/400F until they begin to char around the edges. Remove from oven, allow to cool and shake a generous amount of chopped mint over the peppers.
