INSTRUCTIONS
1. Carefully slice a lid off each pepper and with a small serrated knife
cut away the center piece of each lid, leaving only edible flesh. Put the
lids aside. Scoop out all the membranes and seeds and wash the peppers
thoroughly. Plunge them into boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, remove, and
drain upside down.
2. Pour 4 Tbs. of the melted butter into a saucepan and over low heat;
saute the asafoetida for a few moments. Add the dill, paprika, salt, basil,
and coriander. Stir and remove from the heat.
3. Place the mashed potatoes, three-quarters of the grated cheese, and the
herbed butter in a bowl and mix until smooth.
4. Stuff all the peppers with the herbed potato and sprinkle the reserved
cheese on top. Replace the cored lids. Place in a baking dish, brush with
reserved butter and bake in a preheated oven at 355 F for 30 to 40 minutes
or until the peppers are tender and lightly browned.
