STEWED PEPPERS WITH TOMATOES, ONIONS AND GARLIC



Stewed Peppers with Tomatoes, Onions and Garlic image

There are variations of this dish throughout the Mediterranean. The Basque piperade, made with slender, slightly piquant peppers called piments d'espelette and stirred into scrambled eggs along with bayonne ham, has some heat; whereas Italian peperonata is sweet through and through. A North African version, chakchouka, is spiced with fiery harissa and a spice blend made with caraway and coriander, cayenne and garlic, and is usually served with eggs poached right on top of the stew. See the variations below.

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

PANEER JALFREZI (PANEER WITH GREEN PEPPERS, ONIONS AND TOMATOES)



Paneer Jalfrezi (Paneer With Green Peppers, Onions and Tomatoes) image

Jalfrezi refers to a dish cooked with peppers and onions. Monisha Bharadwaj suggests to serve this with roti (bread) and nothing else. However, I served this with plain basmati rice which was lovely. The recipe has been adapted from Monisha Bharadwaj's beautiful book India's Vegetarian Cooking - A Regional Guide. It serves 2 as a main dish together with Indian bread or rice or 4 as a side dish accompanied by another Indian dish.

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons sunflower oil
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1 large onion, halved and finely sliced
1/2 tablespoon ginger paste
1/2 tablespoon garlic paste
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander powder

150 g panir, cubed
3 tablespoons fresh coriander, chopped (=cilantro)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a skillet and fry cumin seeds for one minute.

  • Add ginger and garlic paste and fry for a few seconds until well blended.
  • Sprinkle in the spice powders and some salt and cook on low heat until the oil begins to separate in about 3 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent scorching.
  • Add the sliced pepper pieces, stir and simmer gently until they are nearly done but still hold their shape, for about 8 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes and paneer and cook for about 2 minutes until soft but not mushy; the tomatoes will begin to soften at once because of the salt that has already been added.
  • Check the seasoning (you may need to add a little bit more salt, take off the heat and serve hot, sprinkled with fresh coriander.
  • Serve with Indian bread as suggested by Monisha Bharadway or with basmati rice and another Indian dish/other Indian dishes.

SCRAMBLED PEPPERS AND EGGS



Scrambled Peppers and Eggs image

As in many Mark Bittman recipes, the idea here is more vegetables -- in this case, peppers -- than protein. It works because except for the jalapeño, none of the peppers is hot.

2 poblano or Anaheim chiles, chopped
1 fresh hot green chile (like jalapeño), chopped, optional
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Salt and ground black pepper
4 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Put oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's translucent, 1 or 2 minutes.
  • Add peppers, chiles and garlic, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are brightly colored but not too soft, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in eggs. Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, until eggs are cooked, 3 to 8 minutes. Serve on toast or over rice, or wrapped in a flour tortilla.
