Talimatlar
- 1.Preheat oven to 200°C. Halve the bell peppers, remove seeds, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until the skin is blistered and charred.
- 2.While peppers roast, combine the rinsed lentils and vegetable broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain any excess liquid.
- 3.Once the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and chop the flesh into small pieces.

- 7.Flip the fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes until just cooked through.
