Method

  1. 1 Cut the bell pepper lengthwise, then remove the seeds while leaving the stem intact.
  2. 2 Drain the tofu well and mix it with minced meat, scallions, garlic, and sesame oil.
  3. 3 Mixing tofu into the filling helps keep it soft and prevents it from shrinking and separating from the chili shell.
  4. 4 Stuff the chili peppers with the filling, then coat the cut surface with flour.
  5. 5 Dip the filled side into the beaten egg, then pan-fry with the filling side down for 4 minutes.
  6. 6 Flip the chili pepper over and cook the skin side down for 3 minutes, then dip it in soy sauce mixed with vinegar.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 39 min

    Replace steps 5 and 6: spray oil onto the egg-coated chili peppers, place the filling side up, and air fry at 185 degrees for 11 minutes, flipping at the 7th minute to cook the filling and lightly brown the chili skin.
