Flavorful fried green peppers typical from the Galician town of Padrón
Ingredients
½ pound fresh Padron peppers
Virgin olive oil for frying
Coarse salt or fleur de sel to taste
Instructions
Wash the peppers thoroughly and pat dry with kitchen paper.
Pour the oil in a pan to a depth of 1" approximately and put it on medium heat.
When the oil is hot, grab a handful of peppers and throw them into the oil. Use a lid as the oil will splash quite a lot. They should brown on both sides, but should not get too dark. Turn them over if necessary.
When done, take them out with a slotted spoon and sprinkle with the salt. Serve immediately while piping hot accompanied by a sturdy country bread.
