Description

Kickstart the week with this versatile dish. These roasted capsicums are stuffed with a fragrant lentil mixture, but you can make it again with another filling to shake things up.

Method

Step 1 of 3

Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced.

Step 2 of 3

Heat half of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion. Cook for 5 minutes, or until softened. Add tomato, garlic, oregano and cinnamon. Cook for 2 minutes, or until fragrant. Add rice and lentils and stir to coat. Add stock and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 12 minutes, or until rice begins to soften. Remove from heat. Add parmesan, mint and lemon juice. Season. Stir to combine.

Step 3 of 3

Slice tops off capsicums and reserve. Remove and discard seeds and membrane. Spoon rice mixture into capsicums and place in a baking dish. (The capsicums should fit snugly.) Top with capsicum tops. Drizzle with remaining oil. Add half cup water to baking dish. Bake for 40 minutes, or until capsicums are tender. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with yoghurt.
