cook time 20 mins
Serves 4

Ingredients Method

4 red peppers
1 tsp rapeseed oil
Salt and pepper
40g pumpkin seeds
60g kale leaves, woody stems removed
30g shaved parmesan
For the Caesar dressing:
4 anchovies
½ clove garlic
1 tsp Dijon mustard
4 tbsp freshly grated parmesan
3 tbsp light mayonnaise
Juice of half a lemon
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

Preheat the oven to 240°C.

Slice the tops off the peppers, scoop out and discard the seeds, then rub the peppers all over with a little rapeseed oil, and season with salt and pepper.

Place on a baking tray in the heated oven for 15-20 minutes until soft and blackened a little round the edges.

Meanwhile make the Caesar dressing by grinding the anchovies and garlic in a pestle and mortar, then mix in the remaining ingredients, and season to taste.

Place the pumpkin seeds into a small pan over a medium heat and toast until fragrant and the skins begin to pop.

Place the kale, pumpkin seeds, parmesan shavings and dressing into a large bowl and toss to coat. Spoon the kale into the pepper pots and serve.
