1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a large baking dish.

   Wash the tomatoes and bell peppers. For each tomato, carefully slice off the top and scoop out the pulp and seeds using a spoon. Reserve the tomato pulp. For each bell pepper, slice off the top, remove the core and seeds.

   Около 10 мин

   Совет повара: Be gentle when scooping the tomatoes to keep the skins intact.

3. 3

   Finely chop the reserved tomato pulp. In a large bowl, combine the chopped tomato pulp, onion, garlic, rice, parsley, mint, olive oil for the filling, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

   Около 10 мин

   Совет повара: Massage the filling ingredients together with your hands to ensure even distribution of flavors.

4. 4

   Carefully stuff each tomato and bell pepper with the rice mixture, filling them about two-thirds full to allow the rice to expand during cooking. Place the stuffed vegetables in the prepared baking dish.
