2 lg Round red peppers 8 Eggs Salt and pepper 2 tb Unsalted butter 1 c Tomato sauce 1. Select well-shaped peppers that will sit upright. Halve them crosswise and remove seeds. Trim stems but do not make a hole. 2. Parboil peppers in simmering, salted water until just tender, then drain peppers. 3. Break eggs 2 eggs into each pepper half. Season and top with a 1/2 tablespoon slice of butter. Place peppers in small baking pan, pour in 1 inch of hot poaching water, and bake briefly at 375 degrees until eggs set. 4. Ribbon with tomato sauce. My suggestions. Try a spice such as Szechuan Style Pepper or Herb Pepper Blend instead of the salt and pepper. (Szechuan is copied from the label of a McCormick spice jar. Spell checker suggests the spelling Szechwan.) This also could be cooked at a low at a medium setting in a microwave oven.
