Spiral Stuff Sweet Peppers - Vegetarian


Stuffed Peppers are one of my favorite. Whenever I, see the lushes light greens smileling at me in the market, just can't stop myself from picking few of them. When I,  severed these,  they were really surprised when they took a bite and ate the awesome stuffed peppers. Crisp from outside, soft and yummy from inside, not at all pungent. These are mind blowing. Try them.....

Sending these to this month's BM, week 2 day 3 - theme -"Deep Fried Love" this is the third recipe .

5 Long Green Chillies / Green Peppers


For the Stuffing
2 Potatoes - boiled and mashed
1 Scallion  - white and green parts - finely chopped

1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Oil

For the Crust
1 Cup All Purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons Hot Oil
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
