What it is
Bell peppers hollowed out and stuffed with a savory mixture of ground meat (pork, beef, or a mix), onions, and spices, typically braised in a tomato-based sauce. Traditionally includes rice, but can be easily prepared without it for a keto version. The focus should be on the meat and bell pepper.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers, ground pork/beef, onions, garlic, canned crushed tomatoes, beef broth, cooking oil, salt, pepper, herbs (e.g., bay leaf, dill).
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no rice in the filling. Confirm the tomato sauce is not sweetened; ask for a simple, savory sauce. Ensure no flour or starch thickeners are used in the sauce.
