✨ Tips

• Use slightly under-ripe bell peppers for best results — they hold their shape better.
• Make ahead: flavors improve if left in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.
• Add a dollop of sour cream when serving for authenticity.
• For extra richness, stir a little cream into the sauce before serving.
