Roasted Stuffed Peppers or Capsicums
I rarely find the kind of light green capsicums here, until recently. It has started popping every where from supermarkets to farmers markets. They are very mild, with just a hint of heat.
9 capsicums or baby bell peppers
1 small onion or a shallot.
100 g potato ( peeled, boiled and mashed)
1 can tuna
Juice of 1/2 a lime
Salt and pepper
oil
1. Cut around the stem of the pepper/ capsicum and remove the stem. Using the end of a teaspoon, scoop out the seeds and the white membrane. Try not to break the skin.
3. Using your fingers fill the peppers with the filling, dont fill up till they burst, leave a tiny space at the top as the filling sometimes tends to come out while roasting.
4. Preheat oven to somewhere between 200- 220 degrees celsius, moderately hot oven. Place the capsicums or peppers in a lightly greased try and bake till soft and slightly brown as shown above. Make sure to turn them in once.
Serve as a side dish with rice or as a snack with some tomato ketchup or chilli sauce.
Tuna filled capsicums sound really marvelous!
