Quarter, halve and seed the peppers. Arrange them in one layer, skin side up on the grill pan. Grill until the skins are blackened. Put the peppers in a plastic food bag until cold, then peel off the skins.
Slice the peppers thinly, keeping the two colours separate. Arrange rows of red and yellow peppers over a flat serving platter. Slice the mini goat’s log and arrange over the top.
Heat the oil in a small pan, add the garlic and fry quickly until lightly golden. Stir in the chilli, then spoon the chilli and garlic oil over the peppers and cheese. Sprinkle with a little freshly ground pepper and serve.
