1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper |
1/4 cup hazelnuts roasted hulled and halved |
1/2 cup chopped fresh sorrel |

1. Cut onions in half moon slices 1/2 thicken then arrange on a baking sheet.
2. Broil 5 minutes or until the skins begin to char.
3. Remove from broiler and set aside to cool.
4. Arrange cheese slices on a serving platter then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
5. In large frying pan heat oil and butter over low heat until butter has melted.
6. Increase heat to medium then add chopped peppers and sauté 10 minutes.
