In the mean time, cut the peppers and spring onion. Rinse and drain the red and green pepper. Place them on a cutting board, remove their stem and seeds. Pick a sharp knife, finely dice them and set aside. Now, remove the root hairs of the spring onion along with the external skin layer and rinse them properly.
