Capsicum/Bell Pepper Steak

Capsicum/Bell Pepper Steak

This is a family favourite. It has colour, taste, nutrition and is simple to make. Give it a try.

Ingredients

2 green onions

4 T. olive oil

4 T. soy sauce

1 tsp. thyme

Dash of pepper

1/2 lemon, juiced

1.2 pounds or 600 grams flank steak or skirt state (ask your butcher), cut into serving portions

3 large capsicum (bell peppers), preferably different colours. Slice or dice it to suit your taste (we prefer to have it diced so you have colourful bits throughout)

3 garlic cloves

Cooking

The key to this recipe is the marinade and also the quality of the steak.

Combine green onions, soy sauce, olive oil, thyme, pepper and lemon in a bowl and marinate the steak for as long as you can, at least for several hours.

Saute the capsicum/bell peppers, with the garlic in a small amount of oil in a medium skillet.

Add steak, sauté on each side until done.

Serve over hot buttered rice.

The Twelve-Day War of June 2025: Israel and Iran Have We Turned A Corner?

After years of debate, negotiations, threats and risks, the inevitable finally came: military action. Israel pre-emptively attacked Iran’s nuclear program while neutralising its nuclear scientists and top military men. There was the Six-Day War of June 1967; now we have the Twelve-Day War of June 2025. The combatants: Israel, Iran, and briefly, the United States. Despite all this, have we turned a corner? The state of war started in 1979 after the successful installation of a theocratic, fundamentalist, puritanical regime called the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Islamic Republic overthrew the Shah of Iran, the last sovereign of a monarchy which lasted 2,500 years since the days of Cyrus the Persian, who is prominently mentioned in the Bible. The Shah was replaced by a Shia Muslim cleric, called the Supreme Leader, who possesses broad executive powers, more than the elected Iranian President. The Supreme Leader is the most powerful person in the country. From Day One, Iran announced its...

‘Liberation Day:’ What The Trump Tariffs Are About?

April 2, 2025, another day, another flurry of activity coming from the Oval Office. Yet, it wasn’t like any other day. After signing yet another Executive Order, US President Donald Trump declared it ‘Liberation Day.’ On paper, he had ordered ten per cent tariffs across the board on countries worldwide, friend and foe alike. In reality, he is shaking up the world's economic and political order, deliberately. Initially, there was great consternation around the world. The stock market and, more worryingly, the bond market dived. Dozens of nations queued up to negotiate a bilateral trade agreement with the American administration. Then, Trump announced a 90-day freeze on tariffs for those countries that had reached out to the Americans. Both stock and bond markets recovered; a correction came to what was overvalued, and life calmed down for the moment. While critics derisively called the ‘tariff freeze’ a ‘backflip,’ it was actually part of the plan all along. Liberation Day spawned...

FALL FROM GRACE: WHAT’S NEXT FOR EX-PRINCE ANDREW?

It was like a nuclear explosion. First is the impact, then the mushroom cloud, followed by the fallout. For the first time in the 1,000-year history of the British monarchy, a close member of the royal family was arrested for alleged criminal conduct. Where it is going and how it will end is anyone’s guess. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (AMW), previously known as Prince Andrew, was arrested on 19 February for possible ‘misconduct in public office’. This stems from his past relationship with disgraced financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. As of yet, Andrew has not been charged with any crime, but neither has he been cleared either. Multiple police investigations are underway. Born into immense wealth and privilege, until last year, Andrew had known only royal life. Yet on the day of his arrest, 19 February 2026, he was treated like a common man. Pronounced under arrest, his two residences - Royal Lodge (Windsor) and Wood Farm (Sandringham) - were searched, and all electr...
