For the Piquant Sauce, preheat olive oil in pan and fry chopped garlic and onion until golden. Add the chopped tomatoes, chopped anchovies, pitted olives, capers, chopped basil and parsley cook for around 10 minutes. Add white wine and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Prepare the green peppers, by cutting them lengthways and place in a small dish. Sprinkle salt and pepper, chopped garlic and a drizzle of olive oil over the peppers.
