1 tablespoon canola oil

1 medium yellow onion -- diced

1 large green or red bell pepper -- seeded and diced

1 stalk celery -- diced

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1/2 scotch bonnet -- seeded and minced

or 2 large jalapeno chile peppers

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper,

minutes.

 

Ladle the soup into bowls and serve.

 

TIP - Fresh Scotch bonnet peppers are available in well-stocked supermarkets and

Caribbean grocery stores.
