EditTips

  • In many parts of Italy red peppers would be used rather than black, and they are much healthier, but many people don't like them in any quantity.
  • Use chicken stock or white wine instead of water if you have it, but it is not essential.
  • You may prefer to cook this on the stove instead of the oven, but if you do, make sure the fire is very low once it has all come to the boil.
