These stuffed peppers with rice and ground beef is a breeze to make. It’s simple and looks amazing ! The trick is to use passata (tomato puree) for that silky sauce you can make in seconds to cook the peppers in.

Eggplants in Tomato Sauce
They say that when you don’t have anything to start a conversation with,talk about the weather.The weather is playing havoc these days. Just yesterday our car read the temperature as 24 degree Celsius outside. It wasn’t much cold in Dubai this time. Kids weren’t wearing any extra clothing other than their usual summertime shorts and pants. Even the AC was running throughout the night for a few days unlike last year where it remained forgotten for a good few months. But I remember back in Qatar,I had to buy heaters to keep us warm. I was feeling a bit sad,that the winter is coming to an end so soon,even before it started.And that soon,the harsh summer will be upon us.
But it had read 15 degree Celsius in the morning today and S wanted me to bring the kid’s jackets to the car to take them to school. Sure enough,it was chilly and windy. I loved it. I hope the winter will last long. And the summer will be far and short.
Kankun Stir-Fry
Surprisingly,this is one of my favourite dishes since childhood when I despised all sorts of greens on my food.Maybe it’s the subtle flavour of Maldive fish combined with red chillies that tantalized my taste buds or the distinct slippery texture and flavour of the leaf or the childhood memories it brings..Whatever that is,it still remains one of my favourits.
Though it’s hard to find the fresh large Kankun leaves here in Dubai,I received two bunches of rather small leaves and I put it to use immediately.
