I used red pimento peppers. This is a very flavorful pepper that is not hot, if you can get you hands on these you will love cooking with them. I know these are not readily available in some parts of the world, However red bell peppers is just as flavorful. So for this recipe you can use red bell peppers.

 

Once you have your ingredients ready, let’s get to cooking.
