- The ground meat can be any, but the juiciest, tenderest, and moderately fatty filling is obtained from a mixture of beef and pork taken in equal proportions. Place the ground meat in a bowl, add the onion, hot pepper, and rice, salt to taste, and mix well. When kneading, add water little by little so that the filling is not dense but juicy and soft. If desired, you can add a little of your favorite spices, but in moderation, so as not to drown out the aroma of the bell pepper.250 g ground beef, 150 g rice, salt
