Stuffed Romano Peppers, Chickpeas and Feta
A colourful, classic recipe that is packed with flavour and variety. The rose harissa in this recipe adds a great level of spice but it's nice to have, not a must-have. If you'd prefer to keep this dish more kid-friendly, we'd suggest leaving it out or just having it on the side as a condiment.
Method
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Chop the onion, garlic and the sun-dried tomatoes as instructed in the ingredients list.
Step 2
Pour half of the olive oil into a frying pan and place on a medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and a pinch of salt and cook for 5-6 minutes until the onions turn translucent. Now add the chopped garlic, the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and the harissa pasta (if using). Mix well and cook for a further minute.
Step 3
Pour in the cooked puy lentils and drained chickpeas along with a splash of water, salt and pepper. Simmer for 5-6 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed. Turn off the heat, crumble in te feta and add the chopped parsley.
Step 4
Split each red pepper in half lengthways. Remove the seeds and the pith before transferring the peppers to a baking tray. Use the chickpea filling to load the peppers. Drizzle with a touch more olive oil and back for 20 minutes in your hot oven until the peppers are just cooked.
Step 5
Dress the salad leaves with the balsamic vinegar and a little more olive oil. Serve with the tasty stuffed peppers.
