directions
- Boil the rice until it is half cooked.
- In the meantime mix the minced meat with the chopped bacon, the spices and the raw egg.
- After the rice is half cooked, add it to the mix.
- Put the oil and the onions in a large pot, which is large enough to hold all the paprikas and sauté for about 5 minutes.
- Add the chopped celery leaves, tomatoes, spices and tomato puree the wine and half the water.
- In the meantime wash all the green peppers (yellow paprika) an cut the top.
- Take the hearts out.
- Fill the stuffing though not too tight, some space is needd for the rice to grow.
- Put them in the boiling sauce and add the rest of the water.
- In case the number of paprikas are not sufficient to accommodate the stuffing, make balls of the meat stuffing and add them together with the stuffed paprika.
- Boil for approx 60- 70 minutes.
- Serve the boiled stuffed paprika with boiled potatoes and pour the sauce over.
- But to tell the truth, I never do that.
- I prefer the meal alone, or to be precise, with lots of fresh soft white bread.
