What can you see on this picture? Do you have any idea? This is the Hungarian Stuffed Pepper the 'Töltött paprika'. Recipe is originated from the Serbian culture (like lecsó).

8 (green / red) peppers (sweet or slightly hot),

Mix the meat with half cooked rice and egg, and the chopped onion. Add salt, pepper and paprika (of you like garlic, you may add two cloves of pressed garlic too)
3. Stuff each pepper with an equal amount of meat mixture, then place staffed peppers in large pot of boiling water. Cover pot and cook until ground meat is fully cooked and rice is tender.
4. Prepare a roux from the flour and oil (or lard), pour in the tomato juice, flavor with sugar and salt, then pour over the stuffed green peppers and cook about five or ten minutes.
5. Serve peppers with sauce spooned over top and with salt cooked potato.
