BEEF STUFFED PEPPERS RECIPE

When you make the Beef Stuffed Peppers instead of using all green peppers you can add colour by using the red, green and yellow peppers for the Beef Stuffed Peppers. I find that my family always eat two of the Beef Stuffed Peppers each so I make a few when I make them.

Beef Stuffed Peppers Ingredients

1/2 tsp salt
1 dsp margarine
1 lb finely minced steak
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 1/2 cups cooked rice
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
6 good sized green peppers

For the Creole Sauce:
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup water
1 dsp plain flour
16 oz can tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tsp crushed sweet basil

Beef Stuffed Peppers Method

Cut the tops from the peppers and remove the membrane and seeds. Cover the peppers with boiling salted water and simmer for 5 minutes and then drain. Melt the butter in a pan and brown the onion then add the meat and celery and cook stirring well until the meat is cooked well and then add the rice and the salt. Spoon into the peppers and place them in an upright position in a deep casserole. Make the sauce for the Beef Stuffed Peppers by simmering the tomatoes, onion, salt, sugar and sweet basil in a saucepan for 10 minutes and then add the flour blended with cold water. Pour over the peppers and cover and bake in a moderate oven for about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake the Beef Stuffed Peppers for a further 15 minutes.
