   1       lg           Red bell pepper
   1       lg           Yellow bell pepper
   8                    Fresh serrano chilies
                        -- (red or green)
   1       c            Sugar
     2/3   c            Distilled white vinegar
   8       oz           Fresh capellini

   2       tb           Salad oil

  Stem and seed peppers and chilies; slice into thin
  strips.  In a large bowl, mix together peppers,
  chilies, sugar and vinegar.  Transfer mixture to a
  nonstick frying pan.  Cook and stir over medium heat

  Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.
  Drain pasta completely, then transfer to a bowl and
  toss with sesame oil to coat. Heat a 12-inch pizza pan
  in a 500 F. oven until hot, about 5 minutes. Without
  turning off oven, remove pizza pan. Coat pan evenly
  with the salad oil, then spread pasta in pan.  Return
  pan to oven and bake pasta on lowest rack until golden
  brown (about 20 minutes). Slide out pancake onto a
  serving platter.  Top with pepper mixture and cut into
  wedges.
