Ingredients
- 1 lb Spicy village sausage
- 3 Green bell peppers
- 2 Red bell peppers
- 4 Tomatoes
- 1 Onion
- 1/4 cup Olive oil
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
Steps
- Brown the sausage coins in olive oil until crisped at the edges, about 6 minutes; lift out.
- Soften the onion and peppers in the sausage fat 10 minutes until sweet and collapsing.
- Add the tomatoes and paprika; simmer 10 minutes into a thick, brick-red sauce.
- Return the sausage and simmer 5 more minutes so it drinks up the sauce.
- The dish should be glossy, spicy, and unapologetically rich.
- Serve with crusty bread or over fried potatoes; Pelion’s mountain villages invented this for cold nights.
- A fried egg on top turns spetsofai into a legendary breakfast.
