Instructions
 
Roast Your Own
  • If you're roasting your own peppers take the trouble to also roast the tomatoes. You can do this in a very hot oven or over charcoal. 
  • When the peppers and tomatoes are well blackened put into plastic sandwich bags and wrap in a kitchen towel until they're at least tepid. Remove the skins and seeds and roughly chop
Otherwise
  • Use a jar of roasted peppers and raw tomatoes and garlic
  • Put all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse to get the right consistency for you. 
  • Season and gently stir in a little good olive oil
