Shanagarry pepper and tomato stew

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Olive oil, plus
2 teaspoons Olive oil
Garlic clove, crushed
1 Onion, sliced
2 Red peppers
2 Green peppers
6 larges Dark red, very ripe tomatoes
Salt, freshly ground
Pepper and sugar, to taste
Few leaves fresh basil

Directions

Heat the olive oil in a casserole, add the garlic and cook for a few seconds. Add the sliced onion, toss in the oil and allow to soften over a gentle heat in a covered casserole while the peppers are being prepared.

Halve the peppers, remove the seeds carefully, cut into quarters and thin into strips across rather than lengthwise. Add the pepper to the onions and toss in the oil. Replace the lid and continue to cook.

Meanwhile peel the tomatoes (scald in boiling water for 10 seconds, pour off the water and peel immediately). Slice the tomatoes and add to the casserole, season with salt, freshly ground pepper, sugar and a few leaves of fresh basil. Cook until the vegetables are just soft, approximately 30 minutes.

Yield: 8 to 10 servings
