This recipe is one of the starters that we had on Christmas day. It is absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

• 2 red peppers

• 50g parmesan (grated)

• 200g single cream

• 3 eggs

• 50g salsa tonnata (tuna mayonnaise) - see recipe below

• Olive oil

• Salt and pepper

Method

1. Wash the peppers and remove the seeds.

2. Cut them in strips and lightly sweat them on a slow heat in a frying pan. When they are soft, remove a few for decoration.

3. Put the remainder in a food processor and whizz with the cream, parmesan, eggs, salt and pepper.

4. Pour the mixture into four oven proof souffle dishes and put them in a large oven dish with water halfway up the side of the containers i.e. cook bain marie for 50 minutes at 160C.

5. Remove from the oven, cool them a little and then remove them from the containers, one on each plate and decorate with the salsa tonnata and the peppers that you removed for decoration.
