Great recipe Aslı!
This is one of my favourite meals ever but I'm wondering what kind of rice do you usually use for this?

Don't want to look stupid but have to ask. Is the rice and mince cooked before we put it in the pepper. And when you say put it in the water to the neck, does that mean that it covers the outside of the pepper ensuring none goes inside the top?

No they are raw and no too much water will ruin the taste, water will go inside anyway. I am already making myself stupid by this recipes' english. Need more cooking terms. Waiting for help

the peppers are standing up in the pot. fill the pot with water about 3/4 up the pepper. the meat and rice is almost steamed this way. pot is covered obviously.

Thanks Keith, I actually wouldn't have covered the pot things that are obvious to everyone else when cooking are not obvious to me. Thats why I love this forum page.
