Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1 tablespoon grated gingerroot; 1/4 cup olive oil; 1 teaspoon sesame oil; 1 large red bell pepper, quartered and seeded; 16 large basil leaves; 2 ounces light feta (not crumbled); 1 lime, quartered; fresh ground black pepper; basil leaves (to garnish, I like to use the little sprigs at the top of the plant)

Servings: persons

2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 large red bell pepper, quartered and seeded
16 large basil leaves
2 ounces light feta (not crumbled)
1 lime, quartered
fresh ground black pepper
basil leaves (to garnish, I like to use the little sprigs at the top of the plant)

1
To make dressing: place garlic, ginger, and oils into a small pan over medium heat. Cook just until the garlic turns white; do not allow garlic to brown. If garlic browns, toss out and start over. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature. The dressing may be made several hours in advance.
2
Roast the pepper quarters under a broiler until skin blackens and blisters. Wrap in damp paper towels and place in a small paper bag, folding top down to close. Allow to sit until cooled enough to handle, 15-20 minutes.
3
Peel, trim, and cut each quarter into halves.
4
Slice the feta into 8 slices.
5
On each of 4 salad plates, place one strip of pepper. Add a slice of feta, then top with 2 basil leaves. Repeat layers, fanning or arranging the layers so that each layer is visible.
6
Cover loosely with damp paper towels and refrigerate until ready to serve.
7
To serve, bring salads to room temperature. Drizzle the dressing over the salads and grind pepper over the top to taste. Garnish with a sprig of basil leaves and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over the salad.
