They are described as Russian Roulette in hotness because 1 in 5 will blow your head off.
Ingredients
Pimento de Padron
Olive Oil
Good quality salt
Method
Cover the bottom of your fry with a good quantity of olive oil.
Wait till its hot hot hot (test put a pimento in the frypan and you should hear and see bubbling)
Place in your pimentos and let them cook away moving them around and turning
They will start to blister and then turn a little brown on the blistering
Use tongs to take them out and place on paper towel
Don't be alarmed they will deflate.
Sprinkle with salt and serve.
I'm not drinking beer at the moment, but these little wonders would be a great tapas item to have with beer.
