👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Prepare the filling: In a pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until softened. Add grated carrots and sauté for another 3-5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, salt, pepper, paprika, and sugar. Simmer for a few minutes. Add the cooked rice and mix well until combined.
2
Pre-cook the ground meat separately until browned, then drain excess fat. Add the browned meat to the vegetable and rice mixture and combine thoroughly.
3
Wash the bell peppers, cut off the tops, and carefully remove the seeds.
4
Evenly fill each pepper with the meat and rice mixture. Place the tops back on the peppers.
5
Arrange the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish or pot. Pour the water and sour cream over them.
6
Cover the dish and cook over medium heat for about 40-45 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
7
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

💡 プロのコツ

✓For a richer flavor, use a blend of ground beef and pork.
✓Ensure the rice is cooked al dente before mixing with the filling, as it will continue to cook inside the pepper.
✓If the peppers are not standing upright, you can cut a small slice off the bottom to create a flat base.
