Gratin peppers are an easy dish to cook and bake. They can be served as a main course or as an appetizer for your meat or vegetable meals. The gratin is the classic one, made with breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Everything is flavored with some herbs to taste, and garlic. To make the peppers au gratin, it takes at least an hour, because the cooking of this vegetable is quite long. Always follow it because the peppers are easily burned in the oven. If this happens, you can easily eliminate burned parts. Combine the peppers with a fruity white wine.
