STUFFED CHILI PEPPER


Chili peppers, preferrably not too small as they won't hold much!
Minced/ground meat
Cooked yellow lentils (or exclude these and just use meat)
Chopped onion
Finely chopped garlic
Tomato paste
Grated cheese
Salt, pepper
Harissa or hot sauce, if desired
Cumin

Set oven to 225 degrees Celsius. Fry minced/ground meat. Add onions and garlic. Add tomato paste (and harissa or hot sauce if desired) and a little water. Season and let simmer until some of the liquid has reduced. Let cool. Meanwhile, wash peppers, cut of stems and cut them open. Use cold water and be careful not to touch your eyes. When the meat mixture has cooled down a bit, mix with cheese and adjust seasoning. Stuff peppers and place in a greased, ovenproof pan. Place in middle of oven for about 20 minutes. Serve with for instance rice and a salad.
