Talimatlar
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Place the peppers cut-side up in a baking dish.
- 2.In a large pot or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cinnamon, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3.Stir in the rinsed quinoa and red lentils, coating them in the spices. Add the chopped tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender and the liquid is mostly absorbed.
- 4.Season the lentil and quinoa mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Carefully spoon the filling into the hollowed-out bell peppers, packing it in gently.
- 5.Pour about 1 cm of water into the bottom of the baking dish to create steam. Cover the dish with foil.
- 6.Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until the peppers are tender and slightly browned. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
