Today my sister served me baked bell peppers stuffed with
Spanish rice, turkey, and cheese, and topped with fresh hot sauce.
I thought it was absolutely delicious and asked for seconds.
I absolutely love stuffed bell peppers. I just need to remember to put my teeth in to enjoy them. LOL

Yield: 16 Dumplings
4 lg Dried Shiitake Mushrooms
1/2 lb Fresh Mushrooms; quartered
1 1/2 ts Vegetable Oil
1 sm Clove Garlic; minced
1 1/2 ts Soy Sauce
1/2 lg Egg White
Cornstarch
16 Wonton Wrappers
1 Egg Yolk; beaten with
1 ts Water
Red Bell Pepper Strips

MMMMM------------------SHERRY-SOY DIPPING SAUCE-----------------------
1/2 c Chicken stock
1 tb Dry Sherry
1 tb Soy Sauce
1 ts Fresh Lemon Juice
1 ts Sugar
1/2 ts Sesame Oil
2 Green Onions; sliced
Place dried mushrooms in a medium bowl. Add enough boiling water to
cover and soak 20 minutes. Drain. Cut off mushroom stems and discard.
Mince mushroom caps. Set aside.
Mince fresh mushrooms in food processor. Heat oil in a heavy large
skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute 1 minute. Add
minced fresh mushrooms and cook until almost dry, stirring
frequently, about 10 minutes. Mix in shiitake mushrooms and 1/2 ts
cornstarch. Saute 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat. Mix in onion
and soy sauce.
Mix egg white into filling. Line a large cookie sheet with plastic
wrap. Sift a thin layer of cornstarch over plastic wrap. Place 1
wonton wrapper on work surface. Place 2 rounded teaspoons filling in
center. Lightly brush egg glaze around wonton edges. Fold wonton
diagonally in half, forming a triangle with base towards you; press
along edges to seal, squeezing out any trapped air. Brush glaze onto
bottom right corner of triangle and fold toward center. Fold left
bottom corner over and tuck under right corner, pinching corners
together to form the shape of a nurse cap. Place on prepared cookie
sheet. Repeat with remaining wontons, filling and egg glaze, covering
filled wontons with a damp cloth to keep them from drying.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add dumplings and stir gently.
Cook until dumplings are just tender, stirring occasionally, about 6
minutes. Drain.
Mix first 6 sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Mix sliced green
onions into sauce and divide among 4 small bowls. Place 1 bowl on
each of 4 large plates. Divide dumplings among plates. Garnish with
bell Pepper strips and sprouts.
