1 tablespoon of Tropical Sun Vegetable Oil
1 clove of garlic, crushed
1 small red onion, chopped
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
200g beef mince
1 teaspoon of tomato puree
100g cherry tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon of sea salt

Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C/356°F/Gas Mark 4.
- Cut the bell pepper tops, deseed them and keep the tops to be used as lids.
- Cook the basmati rice, following the instructions on the package.
- In a frying pan, on high heat, add vegetable oil and start by frying the garlic, onions and carrots.
- After about 2 minutes or once the onions are translucent you can add in the beef mince.
- Now season with salt, black pepper and cinnamon.
- Keep stirring until the meat has browned - this should take about 10 minutes at most.
- Now add in the tomato puree and the chopped cherry tomatoes. Mix nicely and take it off the heat.
- When the rice is ready mix it in the mince mixture.
- Now stuff the peppers with the rice and beef mince mixture and arrange in a tray.
- If there is any stuffing left, scatter it around the peppers and add the stock to the bottom of the baking tray.
- Close the peppers with their tops and cook them in the oven for about 1 hour or until the peppers are fully cooked through.
