--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                    Onion
   4                    Tomatoes
   4                    Green hot peppers
   5       tb           Butter
   8                    Eggs
                        Salt
                        Pepper
   1       t            Mild paprika powder

  Chop the onion finely. Cut a cross in the top of the
  tomatoes and put them in hot water. Remove the skins.
  Cut the tomatoes into small pieces. Wash the peppers
  and cut them into very small rings. Heat the butter in
  a big skillet. Sautee the onion until soft, then add
  peppers and tomatoes and fry for another 2 to 3
  minutes. Beat the eggs with salt and pepper and
  paprika powder. Pour mixture over vegetables. Keep
  stirring with a fork until set. (Serve on nice fresh
  homemade or -of course- Turkish bread)
  
  Be careful with the peppers. Peppers used here are the
  Turkish kind, a cross between parika's and hot
  peppers. Remove the seeds to make them less hot.
