Molasses-Roast Peppers

Sweet, sticky and full of depth, these roasted peppers are one of those simple dishes that always feels a bit special. The pomegranate molasses adds a rich tangy-sweetness that balances perfectly with the soft, caramelised peppers.

They’re incredibly versatile – serve them warm with grilled fish or chicken, or cold the next day with salads, grains or dips. A lovely one to batch cook and keep in the fridge for easy flavour boosts throughout the week.

800g mixed peppers, deseeded and cut into thick wedges
