Ingredients:

1 red pepper

1 green pepper

1 yellow pepper

3.5 oz sugar

1 pinch of salt

3.5 fl oz oil

1 sprig of thyme

Preparation:

Wash the peppers and blanch or char over a flame so that they can be easily peeled. Remove the seeds and cut into strips. Place in a pan with the sugar, salt, thyme, and oil. Cover the pan and place over a low heat. Cook for about two hours. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.

This garnish goes especially well with fish or fatty meats such as pork or duck.
