Stuffed Capsicums

 

Ingredients

Method

2 onions

1 large carrot

3 tomatoes

6 mushrooms

1 small eggplant

3 tablespoons parsley

10 tablespoons rice

10 tomatoes or capsicums, for stuffing

½ cup oil 1 cup water

Chop the onions, carrot, tomatoes, mushrooms, eggplant and parsley finely. Clean the ten tomatoes or capsicums by slicing near the top and scooping out the pulp. Heat the ½ cup oil in a fry pan, and fry all the finely chopped ingredients for 5 minutes.  Add the rice (uncooked) to the mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste. Spoon this mixture into the hollow tomatoes or capsicums.

Place the tomatoes/capsicums on a baking tray, adding one cup of water. Bake in a hot oven (200 degrees Centigrade) for one hour (until the rice is cooked). It may be necessary to add more water during the cooking process.
