HUNGARIAN STUFFED PEPPERS
Steps:
- Wash peppers. Cut off tops and remove seeds. Season cavities lightly with salt and pepper. Finely chop pepper tops and place in a large bowl.
- Add onion, ground chuck, pork, parboiled rice, egg, paprika, salt, pepper, and garlic to the bowl containing the pepper tops. Mix well.
- Stuff peppers lightly with meat mixture because the rice will expand. If you have any leftover meat filling, form it into meatballs.
- Place stuffed peppers and any meatballs in a small slow cooker. Mix together tomato sauce and sugar and pour over peppers. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. This also can be cooked in a 350 F oven for 1 hour or on the stovetop for 1 hour.
- Serve peppers with a dollop of sour cream, if desired, and crusty white or rye bread . Cooked peppers freeze well if covered with sauce.

Steps:
- Wash the peppers, cut the top off, and remove the middle section including seeds. Give the peppers a second rinse to remove the rest of the seeds.
- Wash the rice and add it to a small pot. Add water according to package directions and cook the rice until it is half cooked. Let it cool.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the ground meat, rice, egg, salt to taste, and black pepper to taste. Mix well.
- Stuff the green peppers with the meat-rice-mixture. If there is any left, you can form meatballs.
- Wash the celery stick and the banana peppers (optional). Also, peel the onion.
- Place the celery stick (you can cut it in half or thirds if it is too big), whole onion, and banana peppers (optional) into a large pot. Add the crushed tomatoes and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Add the stuffed peppers - and meatballs if any - into the pot. Add sufficient water to almost fully cover the contents. In our case, that's approx. 4 cups of water. Depending on the size of your pot and the size of the peppers, it might be more or less for you.
- Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Place a lid on the pot and let it simmer for around 1.5 hours. You can turn the peppers a couple of times during this time.
- Once the stuffed peppers are soft, remove them from the pot. Also remove the celery stick, onion, and hot peppers and squeeze out the juice. If it's too hot to touch them with your hands, you can place the vegetables in a strainer and then press down with a fork or spoon to squeeze the juice out. Discard the squeezed celery, onion, and banana peppers.
- In a small pot, make a light roux by melting one tablespoon of butter and adding the flour to it. Mix well with a wooden spoon until there are no flour lumps left and sauté the mixture until lightly brown. Add approx. two tablespoons of water to the roux and mix thoroughly.
- Add the roux to the pot of tomato sauce and whisk well. Bring the tomato sauce to a low boil and whisk regularly until there are no lumps left. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it has thickened. Add a pinch of sugar and salt to taste.
- Placed the stuffed peppers (and meatballs) back in the pot of tomato sauce. Let them simmer for 2-3 minutes. You can serve the stuffed peppers with potatoes and/or bread.

HUNGARIAN STUFFED SAUERKRAUT
This is a delicious Hungarian dish, usually made at Christmas time. My family loves it so much, that I have to make it more than once a year. As most Hungarian foods, this is a heavy one too! You can put the leftovers into the freezer, and warm it up even after a month. There is a saying in our country, which we use to describe a relationship, that was broken up, then warmed up again. "Only the sauerkraut is good warmed up", and this saying is true. It's just as good taken out of the freezer that it is served fresh. Enjoy! P.S: You shouldn't be choosey when you make this...you must taste it while preparing the raw meat!!

Steps:
- Squeeze out all excess liquid from sauerkraut into sink from and place in a bowl.
- Cook the rice (you should end up with about three cups).
- Put ground meat into another large bowl - you will need the space!
- In a large deep saucepan, in which you will be cooking the meal; braise the onion in plenty of oil, so it won't burn - until glassy.
- When done, pour off the oil, using spatula to keep onion in saucepan.
- Divide the cooked onions, leaving one half in saucepan
- Place the other half on the meat.
- Turn off the heat and put in plenty of paprika and the tomato sauce on onion left in pan.
- Pour in some water, just as much so the mixture gets creamy.
- Let cool a little, then pour on sauerkraut and mix together.
- Take the bowl with the meat and onion.
- Make a well in the middle of the meat mixture, add the egg and mix together with your hands.
- Mix in cooked rice.
- Add paprika for nice red color, salt and pepper to taste and marjoram.
- Knead until smooth.
- Make sure to taste while you are working with it. This meal should be quite spicy! But not TOO spicy!
- Place one third of the sauerkraut mixture into your sausepan and place half of the speck/ham/lean bacon on top.
- Make meatballs about the size of a kiwi - don't need to make them hard.
- Place in the pan, next to each other to make a "meatball layer".
- Put a second layer of sauerkraut mixture on top of it, then another layer of meatballs.
- Top it with the remaining sauerkraut.
- Place other half of speck on top.
- You must completely cover the meat layers with sauerkraut leaving no holes.
- Pour in water only until you can see it appear on the side - to about 3/4 of the pan.
- Cover, and cook on low heat. Do not stir!
- Occasionally lift pan up and move back and forth sideways, like you were steering your car.
- It is done when sauerkraut is so soft it melts in your mouth. You don't need to taste the meat, because it cooks sooner than the sauerkraut, so it is 100% done if your sauerkraut is cooked.
- Serve with sour cream.

- Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Heat oil in a skillet set over medium heat. Cook onions and garlic for 5 to 7 minutes or until very tender. Stir in rice. Season with ¼ tsp each salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Cool completely.
- Mix together the ground pork, ground beef, the cooled rice mixture, the bread crumbs, parsley, Hungarian paprika, egg, vinegar, and the remaining salt and pepper until combined. Stuff the meat mixture into the peppers, loosely pack the mixture into them so that the rice has a little room to expand as it cooks. Fit the stuffed peppers snuggly in a Dutch oven or oven-proof casserole dish. (If you have any meat mixture left, roll it into big meatballs and add to the Dutch oven.)
- Combine the chicken stock, tomato puree, tomato paste and bay leaves. Pour gently over the stuffed peppers. The liquid should come up to the tops of the peppers, if not add a little water. Spoon some of the liquid into each of the peppers. (To speed up the cook time, bring the liquid to a boil and then pour over peppers before baking.)
