Time 1h4m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
½ cup kasha (toasted buckwheat groats)
1 ¼ cups vegetable broth
2 tomatoes, chopped
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 large green bell peppers

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is almost clear but not browning, about 5 minutes. Add buckwheat; stir until coated, about 1 minute. Add broth and bring to a boil. Simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Add tomatoes, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Remove tops and seeds from peppers. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add peppers, cover, and steam until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Stand peppers up in a casserole dish and fill them with the buckwheat mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 15 minutes.
