Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 35 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make stuffed peppers as a cold appetizer? Prepare your food.

2. STEP 2

   

   It is better to take the peppers that are fleshy and large, about the same size, and can be of different colors. Wash them, carefully cut off the top and remove the stem with seeds.

3. STEP 3

   

   Prepare the filling. Grate hard cheese on a coarse grater: you can take cheese with paprika - it is characterized by red specks and looks very elegant.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour grated cheese into a deep bowl, add peeled and chopped garlic, chopped herbs and mayonnaise. Take fatty mayonnaise - 50 or 67% fat. At this stage, you can add a little melted butter to the filling to enhance the taste and finely chopped bell peppers of a different color if you are using plain peppers for the recipe, for example, green ones, as in the photo.

5. STEP 5

   

   Mix everything thoroughly. The filling is ready.

6. STEP 6

   

   Boil the eggs hard for 10 minutes. Then place them in cold water to cool. Peel the cooled eggs from their shells.

7. STEP 7

   

   Begin the final process. I’ll share the secret of how to stuff bell peppers. I do this: I fill the peppers with a little salad, put a hard-boiled egg in each and carefully fill the remaining space with our cheese salad, compacting it tightly so that there are no voids. Having stuffed all the peppers, I put them in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours so that the cheese mass hardens a little.

8. STEP 8

   

   Before serving, use a sharp knife to carefully cut the peppers into rings approximately 1-1.5 cm thick and place beautifully on a dish, garnished with herbs. Now you know how to prepare a delicious cold appetizer.

I made this yesterday and my family liked it. But the peppers need to be larger in size, otherwise I just suffered with them, the eggs are large and don’t fit. But it turned out very tasty
