Egg chow mein with bell pepper and broccoli
Bell peppers (capsicum) come in a variety of colors; green, red, orange, yellow, purple and white. The red peppers are actually the ripe form of the green ones and have much more Vitamin C and A than the green sort. The diverse peppers add brightness and a splash of hue to a simple dish. They can be eaten without much cooking and so are excellent for fresh salads. My chow mein has shades of green and red, owing to broccoli and peppers.
