Pin Recipe Instructions
- Prepare the indicated ingredients. Use slightly oily lamb so that the dish does not taste dry.
- Rinse the rice in cold water several times, thoroughly washing out the starch.
- Peel the lamb from the veins and films that this meat is rich in, cut into small cubes or pass through a meat grinder. Mix the minced meat, rice, 0.25 teaspoon in a container. salt and ground black pepper. If desired, you can add a little ground coriander, other spices and herbs.
- Remove the seeds from the bell peppers by cutting the cap off each fruit. Rinse with water.
- Stuff the peppers with the prepared minced meat, leaving about 1 cm unfilled, the rice will swell and just fill the whole vegetable when cooking. Otherwise, the peppers will burst and the filling will fall out into the broth!
- Peel the onions and carrots, cut into large cubes, after washing. Heat vegetable oil in a cauldron and fry the vegetable slices in it for about 3-5 minutes until soft.
- Rinse the tomatoes, leaving one, and cut them into quarters, cutting out the green cores. Add to the cauldron and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Then pour in hot water, add the remaining salt.
- Cut the remaining tomato into slices and cover the filling in the peppers. Place the peppers in the broth and simmer for about 40-50 minutes on moderate heat.
