stuffed bell peppers

After a long time I returned back to experimenting with cooking. Due to the presence of my mother (who is an expert cook and thinks I suck at cooking), I haven't really been cooking much. So here is a new experiment I tried today, trying to imitate some stuffed bell pepper I had at a mid-eastern place.

Ingredients:
1 small potato
2 bell peppers
1/2 cup cooked rice (brown rice tastes better)
2-3 tomatoes chopped
1 tbsp garlic paste
1 tbsp oil
salt to taste
1 cup tomato-garlic-onion pasta sauce

preparation:
1. boil the potato and peel and keep.
2. In a pan, heat the oil and add jeera (cumin seeds), garlic paste, tomato (blanch them), red/green chili paste/powder, mashed potato, the cooked rice and salt to taste.
3. Cut the bell peppers from the top, removing the centre on the pepper, keeping the remaining intact.
4. Fill the above made filling into the bell peppers.
5. Coat the bell peppers with oil and cook (in microwave or pressure cooker or oven) until the pepper gets cooked, but doesn't get soggy.
6. Heat some pasta sauce in a pan and pour the sauce over the cooked bell peppers.

The stuffed bell peppers are ready!
