Add salt, pepper an water. Dot with butter. Place a plate upside-down on peppers. Cover and cook on lowest possible heat until peppers are tender (about 40 minutes).

From Turkish Cookery by Gulseren Ramazanoglu (Yoghurt is something made by the Turkish people and is also eaten in other Mid-East countries. I’ve tried it and liked it but haven’t been able to duplicate. Plain American yogurt is not my idea of a good substitute.) Posted by Damita Green in Fidonet Intercook
