Stuffed Hot Chilli Peppers

Instructions

1. 1

   Wash the large green chillies and make a slit lengthwise on each, keeping the stems intact. Carefully remove the seeds to reduce heat, if desired.

2. 2

   In a pan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.

3. 3

   Add the boiled potatoes, green peas, and carrots to the pan. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are well mixed and slightly cooked.

4. 4

   Add garam masala and salt to taste. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes.

5. 5

   Remove the pan from heat and stir in the chopped coriander. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.

6. 6

   Stuff each chilli with the prepared vegetable mixture, pressing gently to fill them completely.

7. 7

   Place the stuffed chillies on a baking tray or in a non-stick pan. Drizzle a little olive oil over them if desired.

8. 8

   Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 10-12 minutes, or cook on a pan over low heat, turning occasionally, until the chillies are tender and slightly charred.

9. 9

   Serve hot as an appetizer or side dish.
