Ingredients
- 300g each pork and veal – cut into long strips and well chilled*
- 4 spring onions, roughly chopped
- 1 medium carrot, peeled, roughly chopped
- ½ cup fresh parsley
- several sprigs thyme
- 2 pieces thick strips lemon rind
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 2 tsp smoked paprika

Method
- Attach the coarse grinding plate to the food grinder on the stand mixer.

- To the pork and veal mixture, season well with paprika, salt and pepper. Attach the flat beater and mix on speed 4 until well combined.
- Divide the mixture between the capsicums and place into a heavy based deep frying pan. Combine the tomato sauce with wine and vinegar and pour over the capsicums. Cover and simmer gently for about 25 minutes, regularly basting the capsicums with the sauce. Serve the capsicums sprinkled with the gremolata
- Gremolata
- Place the ingredients into the clean hopper and grind on speed 4.
Tips
- For best results with the food grinder: chill the meat very well or semi freeze for 30 minutes.
