PAN BAGNAT

Pan Bagnat image

I love making this for a picnic tea. Pressing the sandwich allows the bread to become saturated with the flavours of the ingredients.

1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
1/4 cup capers, rinsed and drained

Steps:

slice the bread in half lengthwise, nearly all the way through.
