Slovenia

We're back from our holiday, feeling refreshed and rejeuvenated and keen to try the last few countries remaining on our journey! Tonight we went to the mediterranean country of Slovenia. The food is similar to Italian, but seems to be simpler and less regional. We cooked stuffed peppers: red capsicum boiled until soft, stuffed with a rice and mince mixture, and simmered in tomato puree and chicken stock. It was really nice! Niamh especially loved it, she says it is so good. We served it with some fresh summer vegetables, and a good lug of really good olive oil. It's great to be back!
