How to make it
- char the peppers over a flame or under a broiler until the skin blisters and can be rubbed off.
- Slice off the tops to form lids and set aside.
- Remove the seeds with a teaspoon.
- Chop the onion and saute on medium heat for a few minutes.
- Add the rice, salami and ham.
- Cook for a few minutes before adding the stock.
- Add stock and cook over med-heat without stirring,
- until the stock had been absorbed and the rice is just tender.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the Mozzarella,
- parsley and garlic.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Fill the peppers with the mixture, top with their lids.
- Place upright in a oiled oven proof pan, touching but not crowded.
- Bake in a preheated oven, 375 for 1/2 hour or until peppers are tender.
- As i said my Aunt is old school and does not use ground meat.
- I have made it this way but also use ground beef, pork or chicken.
- Or a combination of ground meats and it works well.
- If using ground meat i brown it before adding the rice
- and other ingredients
- .
- It is better to char the peppers as it makes them softer and easier to bake and eat. I find if you just stuff them they take longer to cook.
- I find by charring them first it brings a nice flavor to the table.
- I tried my best to write this out as my Aunt does not measure anything:))
- If made with ground meat, you could add some tomatoe sauce to the mixture.
- I used goat cheese mozzarella on these.
