Ingredients for stuffed peppers with minced meat without rice

• 650 g sweet bell pepper;
• 600 g homemade minced meat;
• 120 g carrots;

Method for preparing stuffed peppers with minced meat without rice

Chop a large head of onion rather finely, throw it into heated vegetable oil. So that the oil does not burn, and the finished food does not acquire an unpleasant smell, we use refined oil, odorless (for frying).

Saute the onion for a few minutes, stir.

We send grated carrots to the onion. We simmer everything together for 7-8 minutes.

For stuffing stuffed peppers, take chilled homemade minced meat, which usually consists of half pork, half beef; minced chicken fillet is also suitable.

Season the meat with spices - ground sweet paprika and dried mince seasoning (a mixture of spices) or dried herbs, for example, parsley, dill, celery.

Cool the sauteed carrots with onions a little, separate half of the vegetables. Add to the minced meat, mix. At this stage, pepper and salt the filling.

Cut the multi-colored pods of sweet pepper lengthwise. We leave the stalks, remove the seeds, then rinse the pepper with running water. You can stuff peppers in a different way - cut off the heads with tails and fill the "cups" with minced meat, but this method is not always suitable. If the pepper has a sharp end, then it will be difficult to install it on a baking sheet.

We fill the halves of the pods with minced meat, fill them tightly, make a small hill.

Add tomato puree to the remaining sautéed vegetables, salt, pepper, heat over medium heat until boiling. Instead of ready-made tomato puree, you can grind several fresh tomatoes in a blender.

Put the stewed vegetables in a fireproof dish. Put stuffed peppers on the vegetables - put the pods tightly to each other.

We heat the oven to 185 degrees. Place the form with vegetables on the middle level. We cook the stuffed peppers for about 45 minutes, the exact time depends on the individual characteristics of your stove.

Immediately serve stuffed peppers with minced meat without rice on the table, pour sour cream and decorate with fresh herbs.

By the way, I advise you to prepare lush mashed potatoes with butter and milk for this dish of stuffed peppers for a side dish and make a sauce of sour cream with dill and green onions.
