Directions:
1
Slice onions in half from stem to root. Trim ends and of course the dried outer skin of the onion. Cut in 1/2 again and slice thinly so you will have slices of onion quarters when you are finished.
2
Saute in olive oil over low heat. Do not brown. Cook them until they are limp and light colored, stirring occasionally.
3
Take the thin skin off of the peppers with a swivel peeler. This is the annoying prep part! cut the peppers into thin strips.
4
add to the onions and cook on medium heat for about 25 more minutes, stirring every 3-5 minutes. Add a little splash of water if the sauce begins to stick to pan bottom.
5
Season with salt, black pepper and hot red pepper flakes to taste.

this sauce is sweet and is very good by intself with a little spinach pasta and freshly grated parmigiano reggiano. It is also delicious with lamb stuffed ravioli. I will add that recipe but it might not belong on this site...(Delicious anyway!)
