Baked Capsicum Stuffed With Mince Fried Rice

My father bought some gorgeous looking capsicums today, that is when i thought of making Stuffed capsicums. This is actually a desi version of Greek dish, as my father spent a lot of time in Greece so he knows alot about Greek cuisine. He's the one who taught me how to make these delicious capsicums !

So here goes.

Cut off the top of capsicums and take out the seeds with a spoon or a knife.

Cook mince in a little oil with onion, tomatoes, green chili, salt, red chilli powder, haldi and dhaniya powder.

Cook covered on medium flame. When done, "bhono-fy" till the oil is release and it looks like this.
