July 12: Stuffed Roasted Bell Peppers Class
Join us for this class on: Saturday, July 12
10:30am PT / 1:30pm ET / 5:30pm GMT / 7:30pm Italy
A true classic of Neapolitan tradition, this recipe holds a special place in my heart. I grew up enjoying it, and it’s still one of my family’s all-time favorites. The aroma of roasted peppers and fried eggplant always takes me back to those hot summer evenings when stuffed bell peppers were the highlight of the table.
In my version, the eggplants are roasted instead of fried for a lighter, healthier twist. And you’ll learn how to make a crispy filling frying mini bread cubes with the classic Neapolitan seasoning: garlic, capers, olives, and fresh herbs.
The result is a delightful balance of flavors and textures: sweet, tender red bell peppers, perfectly roasted eggplant, and a savory bread filling.
If you’re looking for a vegan option, simply leave out the anchovies. Plus, this dish is perfect to make ahead, saving you time while still delivering incredible flavor. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one!
