Preparation
- In a nonstick pan, melt 1 tbsp butter and add refined flour. Cook on low heat until golden brown. Then, add milk and cook until flour is cooked. Add salt and pepper and cook until mixture reaches the consistency of a thick sauce. Remove from heat.
- In a second saucepan, heat water and blanch all vegetables except onions. Once blanched, transfer to an ice bath.
- Heat butter in a pan and brown. To this, add chopped garlic and onion and cook until translucent. Then, add blanched vegetables, toss well, and add salt, pepper, and herbs.
- Add the white sauce and cook well. Then, add half of your allotted cheese.
- Cut open the caps of the bell peppers and de-seed. Coat with a little butter mixed with seasonings.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Stuff the peppers and top with remaining cheese. Bake for 15 minutes or until peppers are cooked through but not mushy.
- In a bowl on the side, mix together lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper to make a dressing and dress the greens with it.
- Serve the roasted peppers directly out of the oven with greens on-side.
