Method

  1. Cut the tops off the peppers and scoop out the seeds.

  2. Mix the mince with the rinsed uncooked rice, the finely grated onion, the egg, paprika, a teaspoon of salt and some pepper, and fill the peppers loosely – the rice will swell.

  3. In a large pan, mix the chopped tomatoes with 300 ml water, the sugar and a pinch of salt, stand the peppers in it, cover and simmer gently for 45–50 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in salted water and serve with the peppers and sauce.
