2 med Onions
2 oz. Butter
2 oz. Flour
1 pt. Stock or water

Melt the Butter in a heavy lidded pot.
Slice the Onions and cook gently with the lid on until soft.

Skin the Peppers either by holding the pepper on a long fork over a gas flame and blackening the skin or halving them and putting under a very hot grill until black.
Either way wash off all the blackened skin and add the peeled peppers to the onion mixture.
Stir the 2oz. of flour into the pot, stir well over a gentle heat, add the water or stock, sieve in the tomatoes to exclude the skins and pips and bring to the boil.
