Method
Bring the water and salt in a large pot over high heat.

Drizzle with olive oil and set aside 250 ml of the pasta water.
Place the two peppers on an open gas flame or under the oven’s grill for 10 minutes until charred. Remove and place in a plastic bag to sweat for 5 minutes.
Remove the pepper skins and chop into small pieces.
Add olive oil to a large preheated saucepan and fry the onion, garlic and aubergine until soft and golden brown. Season with salt and pepper.
Add the frikkadels and fry for 5 minutes.
Add the pasta water, chopped peppers and cream, reduce heat and simmer for another 5 – 8 minutes.
