Coarsely chop *two* of the bell peppers. Combine these with the next eight

Heat 1/2 cup butter or niter kebbeh in a heavy 10" to 12" skillet, until a
drop of water dances. Brown meat in the skillet, a little at a time and
turning often, until the meatz is browned evenly without burning. Transfer

to measure 1/2 cup. Set aside.
Wash and dry the skillet. Add the onions and cook them over low heat until
