Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 170°C.
  • Arrange the peppers and courgettes on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper, toss with olive oil, salt and pepper and bake in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes until tender.
  • Put the hazelnuts on a small baking tray and place in the hot oven for 6 minutes, watching them carefully so they don’t burn.
