Authentic version of this dish uses raw meat and raw rice. So the sauce must be thin as water to cook both the meat and rice.I didn't have authentic Hungarian peppers handy at the time of making this dish.Didn't have much time too cause I was getting ready for my vacation to Florida. So I wanted to use up the leftover mini-peppers and a couple of grilled turkey patties. I made up this recipe on the fly.
The photos alone for this post has been sitting in my draft for 2 months now. I have to say I don't remember the exact measurements. Sorry. Serve this with a big dollop of sour cream as the Hungarians do.
