Directions
French Stuffed Red Bell Peppers With Fennel and Goat’s Cheese, One of my most popular vegetarian recipes at Auberge de la Fontaine and also great served as a starter too There is something very theraputic about making this dish – choosing the plump red peppers & fresh fennel bulbs – then selecting a fine Chevre – goat’s cheese! It is delicious served warm or at room temperature with the garlicky Balsamic vinegar & olive oil dressing they are roasted in, drizzled over the top Mop up the juices with crusty fresh French bread and serve with a simple tossed salad These also make a very colourful accompaniment for most main courses , What a great dish! As suggested, I cut the fennel and onions much smaller Even though it won’t be as pretty, I might cut up the peppers next time and have a vegetable casserole Merci, French Tart!, These were excellent, I only wished I had cut the fennel and onion smaller As this is written the pieces are too big and unwiedly when they get to the plate Mind you, that didn’t stop anyone from finishing every bite!
