Padrón Peppers

Preparation

Wash the peppers thoroughly and drain them well. Pour the oil into a frying pan and heat it. When the Spanish olive oil is very hot add the peppers and fry them until they turn a golden colour. Take them out and drain the excess oil. Put the peppers in a wide serving dish and sprinkle sea salt over them. Serve at once.
