Peperonata

A versatile dish that’s a good way of using up a glut of tomatoes.


3 tbsp. olive oil
3 red/green/yellow peppers
1 large or 2 medium onions
1 lb or so of tomatoes
1 clove garlic
salt

Slice the onions and garlic. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the onions and garlic gently for 10 minutes. Add the peppers, seeds removed and sliced into strips. Cook for a further 10 minutes. Then add the tomatoes, roughly chopped (and peeled/deseeded if you can be bothered), and some salt. Cook uncovered for another 20-30 minutes, until most of the liquid has evaporated, stirring occasionally. You can eat this hot, warm, or cool, with bread.
