Caprese salad is traditionally made from mozzarella, tomatoes and fresh basil. It has been adapted here by replacing the tomato with red peppers and adding steak.

(4 portions)

  1. 2 red peppers
  2. 90 ml olive oil
  3. 8 minute steaks
  4. 1 lemon
  5. 250 g white mushrooms, sliced
  6. 300 g mozzarella, thinly sliced

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Heat oven to 220 °C. Place red peppers on a baking tray and sprinkle with about 30 ml olive oil. Place in oven and bake until skin blackens. Turn peppers until whole skin is slightly black. Put in bowl and cover immediately with clingwrap. Leave for about 10 minutes - this will make it easier to remove the skin. Peel the skins from the peppers and remove the seeds. Slice thickly. Heat 30 ml olive oil in a pan and fry steaks on both sides - about 2 minutes on each side. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the meat and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the red peppers, steak, mushrooms and mozzarella on a large serving plate. Sprinkle rest of the oil and lemon juice over the top.

HINT: Fresh basil will go very well with this dish.
