Stuffed Green Peppers Ingredients for 10 Servings (2 per person):
1/2 coffee spoons salt, 1/2 sugar,
2 coffee cups olive oil,
20 small green peppers,
3/4 glass of water,
5 small tomatoes
To Prepare the Filling:
1 level dessert spoon salt
1 level dessert spoon sugar
1/2 bunch each of parsley, mint and dill.
25 grams of currants
25 grams of pine nuts
250 grams of boiling water
250 grams of olive oil
250 grams of rice
750 grams of finely chopped onion
Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions and cook to a golden color. Add the washed nuts and pine nuts. Stir constantly over a medium heat for about 30 minutes until the rice becomes golden in color. Add the salt, sugar, currants and mix. Add the boiling water and mix again. Cover and cook on a very low heat for 15 minutes. Add the dill, mint and parsley and stir. Place on a serving dish and let cool before using.
Cut around the stem of the pepper with a knife. Remove the seeds and membranes from the inside, wash and drain. Cut the tomatoes into 4 pieces. Fill the peppers with the filling prepared previously. Cap with a tomato piece pushing it firmly into the pepper.
Place the stuffed peppers at the bottom of a saucepan, the tomatoes facing upwards. Add the salt, water, oil and sugar. Cook on a low heat for 45 minutes, until all the water has evaporated. Cool and serve.
