Cut the stem-end from sweet peppers, remove the inside, and fill with
mushrooms Czarina, or mushrooms in tomato sauce, and bake twenty to
thirty minutes, basting with a little butter and water, which should
be in the pan in which they are cooked.
PEPPERS WITH RICE
Cut the stem-end from sweet green peppers, remove the inside, fill
with boiled rice and chopped tomato in equal proportions, and season
well with pepper and salt. A few chopped mushrooms, olives, or boiled
eggs may be added to the filling. Bake from twenty to thirty minutes,
basting with butter and water.
GREEN PEPPERS WITH EGG
Parboil 6 green peppers for five minutes, first having cut off the
stem-end and removed the seeds. Put 2 tablespoons of butter in a
frying pan, and when melted add 1 finely chopped onion, and let it
cook slowly for ten minutes; then stir in 3 tablespoons of fine bread
crumbs, and season with salt, pepper, and catsup. Upon removing the
peppers from the boiling water set them up cup-like in a shallow pan,
and put 1 tablespoon of this mixture into each; break into each pepper
1 egg, cover with some more of the prepared crumbs, and bake for ten
minutes if the eggs are liked soft, for fifteen if liked hard. Serve
on toast with 1 1/2 cups of white sauce containing 2 tablespoons of
grated cheese.
PEPPERS WITH CORN
Cut a slice from the end of sweet peppers, remove the inside, and
fill with canned corn, well salted; replace the ends and bake.
Peppers, like tomatoes, may be filled in so many ways that it is
useless to endeavour to enumerate them, for the ingenious cook can
multiply them without end.
ESCALLOP OF PEPPERS AND CORN
Cut enough sweet corn from the cob to make 3 cups. Take 2 or 3 sweet
green peppers and remove the insides, then slice them in very thin
circles and arrange a layer of the corn in a buttered baking dish,
salt it, and then place some rings of the peppers, then another
layer of corn, and so on, until the dish is filled, finishing the
top with peppers. To a cup of cream (or milk) add 1 beaten egg and 2
tablespoons of melted butter; pour this over the whole, and bake for
half an hour in a hot oven. Canned corn may be used, in which case
less cream will be needed.
FRIED PEPPERS
Remove the seeds from 6 sweet green peppers, cut the pods in squares
about half an inch across. Put 1 tablespoon of butter in a frying pan,
and when melted add 1 sliced onion, and let simmer for two or three
minutes; then put into the pan the cut-up peppers, and fry for ten
minutes. Add 1/2 cup of brown or tomato sauce and serve on toast with
boiled rice, or on flat rice cakes.
CREAMED PIMENTOS
Put the pimentos from 1 can into 2 cups of white sauce, and let cook in
a double boiler for ten minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley,
some pepper and salt, and serve on toast.
