Wash the green peppers and dry them completely.
Cut off the stems, remove the seeds, and cut into large pieces.
Heat half the olive oil in a pan and fry the peppers for 8 minutes.
Grate the tomatoes and crush the garlic.
Turn garlic in the remaining olive oil for 1 minute, then add tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and thyme.
Thicken the tomato sauce for 8 minutes.
Place the peppers on a serving plate and spoon the hot tomato sauce over them.
💡 Tip: Drying the peppers completely after washing reduces oil splatter.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm or at room temperature like a meze with toasted bread.
