  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/4           cup  extra-virgin olive oil
  2              large  green bell peppers -- diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  1              large  red bell pepper -- diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  1              large  yellow bell pepper -- diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  2 1/2         pounds  ripe tomatoes -- peeled, seeded and diced, or 2 (28-ounce) cans tomatoes, drained and diced
                        Salt
  5              large  garlic cloves -- chopped
  2                     jalapeño chilies -- seeds and ribs removed, chopped (2 to 4)
  1           teaspoon  ground cumin
  1           teaspoon  paprika
     1/2           cup  chopped cilantro
                        Cayenne pepper -- optional

Heat oil in large, wide, deep pan over medium-low heat. Add bell peppers
and cook until softened, 10 minutes. Remove peppers with slotted spoon.
Add tomatoes, sprinkle them with salt and cook over high heat until they
begin to boil. Cook uncovered over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 20
minutes. 

Return peppers to pan and add garlic, jalapeños, cumin and paprika and
cook over medium heat, stirring often, until bell peppers are tender and
sauce is thick, 10 minutes. Add half the cilantro and cook 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding cayenne if you like. Stir in remaining
cilantro. Serve hot, cold or at room temperature. Stir before serving.

Although jalapeños, cumin and cilantro recall Mexican cooking, these
seasonings are equally popular in Jewish cooking from the Middle East. If
you're not sure how hot you would like the dip, use only 2 or 3 jalapenos,
then season the finished dip to taste with cayenne pepper if needed.
