Stuffed peppers


This is an easy one! What you need are (for 3 to 4 stuffed peppers):


4 peppers of different colours
200g minced beef
1 celery stick, finely chopped
Half a can tomato paste
Onions, sliced/ finely chopped
Garlic, finely chopped
Some fresh oregano/ dried oregano to taste
Olive oil
Salt & freshly miled black pepper to taste

----------------------
1] Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2] Slice the top of the peppers off and remove the seeds and membrane.

3] Line a baking tray with aluminium and place peppers on top. Drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the oven for about 20 to 30 minutes.

4] While the peppers are roasting in the oven, work on the minced beef. Heat a large non-stick frying pan with some olive oil. Add chopped onion and garlic. Then add the chopped celery. Now put in the minced beef and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, diligently break up the lumps with the back of your frying spatula.

5] Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Add salt, pepper and oregano to taste.

6] If the peppers are done, remove them from the oven. Add the filling, cover and roast in the oven for a little while more. Add some cheese, if you like.





Gotta remove the
seeds and membrane..

There you go! Drizzle some olive
oil over it and pop it into the oven

Voila!
