5
Saute over medium-high heat for several minutes, then lower the heat, add the water or white wine, cover and stew until the peppers and onion are very soft and sweet.

If the peppers and onion threaten to stick as the sugars are released, add additional small amounts of water or wine.
7
Taste for salt, and season with freshly ground black pepper when the peppers and onion are finished cooking.
8
Put 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a blender jar with the remaining garlic and a few of the basil leaves and puree.

Gradually add the rest of the basil leaves, using more oil if necessary.
10
Scrape the puree out of the jar, stir in the Parmesan or Romano cheese and season with salt.
