Juicy Stuffed Bell Peppers with Sweet and Savory Pork

Juicy stuffed peppers! By simmering, the meat cooks through without drying out from overcooking.
The origin of this recipe: When bell peppers are large, you can fill them with a lot of meat, but I often worried about cooking them through and ended up overcooking them. So, I thought that by half frying and half simmering, I could make juicy stuffed peppers, and it was a great success!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Finely chop the onion. Combine all the ☆ ingredients in a bowl and knead until sticky.
- 2
Cut the bell peppers in half and remove the seeds. Lightly dust the inside with cornstarch using a brush. (This extra step helps the meat stick better.)
- 3
Stuff the peppers with the meat mixture. (The meat will expand slightly when cooked, so don't overfill. Just enough to slightly mound over the pepper is fine.)
- 4
Heat a frying pan and lightly coat with oil (not listed in ingredients). Once warm, reduce to low heat and place the peppers meat-side down.
- 5
Cover and steam-fry on low heat for about 5-7 minutes until the meat is nicely browned.
- 6
[Note] After browning the meat, do not fry the pepper side! If you flip them, the peppers will curl and the meat will come off!
- 7
Once the meat is browned, wipe off any excess oil from the pan and add all the ◎ sauce ingredients.
- 8
Simmer without a lid over medium-low heat until the sauce bubbles and reduces, coating the peppers.
- 9
[Tip] If the peppers are thick and hard, reduce the heat and cover until they soften.
- 10
Once the sauce is bubbly and glossy with a little remaining, it's done!
- 11
[Additional] Based on feedback, adding a little cornstarch slurry at the end to thicken the sauce is also delicious, so give it a try!
- 12
The peppers, meat, and sauce are juicy and perfect with rice!
