Fried Eggs with Green Peppers

Plunge three, large, sound, thick, green peppers in boiling water for three minutes; remove, then take off the skin with a towel and cut them into halves. Suppress the seeds. Heat a teaspoon oil in a very small frying pan; cut half a pepper in four lengthwise slices; place the slices in the pan; sprinkle two saltspoons salt over them evenly, then gently fry for one minute on each side. Carefully crack two fresh eggs on the peppers, fry for one and a half minutes on the range, then place in the hot oven for half a minute; remove, gently slide on a hot dish and keep warm; then proceed with five more in the same way and send to the table very hot.
