Main Ingredients
- 1 cup leftover Duck Bulgogi
- 3 ripe Tomatoes
- 2 Bell Peppers
- 1/4 Onion (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
This recipe is a fantastic way to give leftover duck bulgogi a delicious makeover, turning it into something new and exciting. It’s a great tip for using up ingredients and minimizing waste!
Step 2
Prepare your leftover duck bulgogi. If the pieces are too large, chop them into smaller, bite-sized portions to make them easier to stuff into the vegetables.
Step 3
Wash the tomatoes thoroughly. Make a small cut around the top, just enough to create a lid. Then, use a spoon or a small paring knife to carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp, creating a hollow cavity. Do the same for the bell peppers: cut off the top, and gently scoop out the seeds and inner membranes.
Step 4
Begin by layering shredded mozzarella cheese inside the hollowed-out tomatoes and bell peppers. If you’re using onion, sprinkle a small amount of finely chopped onion over the cheese for added texture and flavor. Finally, add a tiny pinch of salt to lightly season the filling.
Step 5
Generously stuff the prepared duck bulgogi into the cavities of the tomatoes and bell peppers. Make sure to pack it in well; a good amount of duck ensures a satisfying bite.
Step 6
Once the vegetables are filled with duck, top them generously with more shredded mozzarella cheese. The cheese will melt and bind everything together beautifully.
Step 7
Place the stuffed tomatoes and bell peppers into your air fryer basket or on a suitable tray. Cook at 200°C (approximately 400°F) for about 5 minutes. The goal is to melt the cheese until golden and warm through the filling.
Step 8
Cooking times can vary depending on your air fryer model, the size of your vegetables, and how well-done your original duck bulgogi was. Keep an eye on them to prevent the cheese from burning. Adjust the time as needed for perfectly melted, bubbly cheese.
Step 9
Serve the hot stuffed tomatoes and bell peppers immediately. This dish is a wonderful combination of the rich duck flavor, the freshness of the vegetables, and the creamy, melted cheese. Enjoy this creative and delicious way to enjoy your leftovers!
