Ingredients:

Serving

4 large red bell peppers
6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup mayonnaise
14 oz italian tuna in olive oil, drained (2 cans)
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice ( please , not the bottled stuff!)
4 tsp small capers, drained
16 anchovies packed in oil, drained
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp chopped flat leaf parsley
1 loaf crusty bread , for serving

Directions:

Light a grill or preheat the broiler.
Rub the peppers with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and grill until charred all over and softened, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes.
Transfer the peppers to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let cool; peel, quarter and seed the peppers.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the mayonnaise, tuna, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons of the capers and 8 of the anchovies; puree until the tonnato sauce is smooth.
Spread the tonnato sauce on a large platter and arrange the roasted peppers on top.
Garnish with the remaining 2 teaspoons of capers and 8 anchovies.
Season lightly with salt and pepper and drizzle with the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
Garnish with the parsley and serve with crusty bread.
