How To Cook

Stir in the pine nuts and courgette and cook for 3-4 minutes until the pine nuts are lightly toasted. Stir in the rice, stock and tomatoes and bring to the boil. Season well, then simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes until the rice is cooked and the liquid absorbed.
  3. Remove the peppers from the oven and using a spoon, fill the peppers with the rice mixture. Sprinkle over cubes of cheese and return to the oven for 5-6 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Serve two halves per person.
