Cut the caps off the peppers and remove the seeds.
Mix the lor, rice or bulgur, greens, and spices to prepare the filling.
Fill the peppers, leaving a finger-width space at the top so the filling does not overflow.
Stand the stuffed peppers upright in the pot and add a little hot water.
Cook the stuffed peppers over low heat for 20 minutes.
Let them rest for 10 minutes and serve with yogurt or tomato sauce.
💡 Tip: Keep the filling fairly firm so the lor cheese does not release too much liquid.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Arrange the lor stuffed peppers on a warm plate with the dill-flecked cheese filling visible on top.
