  2. Turn on the oven to preheat at 390°F (200°C), while placing a baking dish with the bottom covered in oil (or water or thin tomato sauce) inside.
  3. Cut out the stems and the seeds of the peppers so that the peppers form a cup.
  4. Mix the rice, the egg and the ground beef and spice everything with salt, pepper and paprika.
  5. Fill the peppers, set them into the baking dish, and bake for 45 minutes.
  6. Serve with green salad and tomato sauce.
