Ingredients
Cooking Directions
Preheat the broiler as hot as you can get it.
Sit the peppers on a rack below. When the skin turns black and blistery, turn them; you want to char them on every side. (You can do this on a stove just by holding them with a long fork over the burner, but it can get tiresome to say the least.)
When peppers are black and charred, remove them to a large bowl and cover immediately with plastic wrap. Leave for 10-20 minutes.
Uncover and (one by one) peel and seed the peppers. Don't get worried if the odd bit of skin (or seed) remains.
Cut or tear into wide chunks/strips and arrange on a large plate.
Crumble over the feta and then squeeze over lemon juice and drizzle with oil.
Scatter over the almonds and sprinkle on the parsley and that is it.
