I really, really loved the way she is describing each and every step with great love and passion to what she is doing, Really amazing !!!!!

I made this the other day, and it was an easy and actually fun process filling the tomatoes and poblano peppers with this Greek style filling. The house smelled so good as the dish was baking, and the flavor of the filling was really delicious. I used fresh mint instead of dry, but otherwise followed the recipe. The tomatoes gave the dish a little bit of tang, and the next day, this tasted even better! I will definitely be making this again. Thank you sharing an easy, yet delicious, recipe.

Thanks for giving the Greek stuffed tomatoes recipe a try. Glad you liked it and thank you for sharing your experience with us. Enjoy! Mariette

I love, love this recipe, I have to make them. Thanks so much!

Looks good, nicely explained, and presented.

That looks amazing! Wow

Yum!! Will definitely make this dish.

very well done! I have to try this!!!

This looks delicious and well presented. Thank you! When I make this I think I’ll also make some tzatziki to dollop on the top before eating. Perfect complement to the dish.

I love your channel so much! I am Arabic and have always wanted to learn how to make Arabic food like this for when I live on my own. :)

Awww... loved the dog! And your recipes, of course.

this recipe looks delicious!

Great recepy!!!!! Thanks a lot

Darling Mariette It is very interesting. It was very good Thank you very much, See you again soon God bless you.

yum yum all good healthy food. thank you for educating me!!!

good tip with the tomato and oil mixture poured on top,.thanks

Yummm!! Looks nice! My mom always had eggplants stuffed along with tomatoes and peppers. And she didn't bake them, she cooked them on the stove in a low heat and without adding rice. Have you ever tried stuffing without rice? In Azerbaycan we usually make it without rice, we use rice only for stuffed grape leaves and cabbage. It tastes much better without rice - Actually it's completely different taste. In Egypt they add a parsley. I hated the taste.

this helped me alot, great video, my first attempt was pretty good :)

You're welcome! I am glad you liked the the Greek stuffed tomatoes. Give it a try and share your experience with us it will be greatly appreciated. Enjoy! :) Mariette

Dam that looks good. And it seems easy. Nice job

Efharesto para polie! This recipe looks delicious:).

You're welcome. All spice is brown in color and resembles large brown peppercorns. The whole corns have a longer shelf life than the powdered product and produce a more aromatic product when freshly ground before use. I always grind the allspice just before using it and if there is any left over I store it in a container with tight lid in my pantry for later use. You can find all spice in almost all ethnic grocery stores. Mariette

@6:36 Good concise visual :)! Wonderful idea! I can't wait to try it :))!!

@ccm800 Hi, you can omit the mint if you like. As I suggested before you can use dried dill instead. The taste of course will be different, but still very delicious. Give it a try and let me know about the result. I will be glad to hear from you. Enjoy! Mariette

Thank you.

I'm Greek. We regularly cook gemista. The rice does not have to be cooked. It is optional. You can also use a variety of rice not necessarily white. Quinoa is an awesome addition too.

You're welcome. The stuffed tomatoes is baked at 400 F. 1 h and 20 minutes is suggested cooking time. You should always check to make sure it's not overcooked or burned, because the cooking time changes with different oven. Give it a try and if you have any other question I will be glad to help. Enjoy! Mariette

DO YOU COVER WITH FOIL

Nice, but I prefer to fry everything together before filling my tomatoes, peppers and eggplants. I love my gemista, but my late mother in law used to prepare the best I have ever tasted. I miss her so much.

Thank you. Glad you like the recipe. It's possible and it's done all the time. But the reason I didn't cook the rice completely with tomato sauce before stuffing is so that the stuffing doesn't turn mushy while being cooked again in the tomato shell. Thanks for your input. Suggestions and input are always welcome in How To Expo. We appreciate it. :) Mariette

Too bad the link to this recipe no longer works

@redbunny4u You can omit mint if you like. specially if you are allergic to it. Do you like dill? If you do you can add a half teaspoon dried dill instead of mint. Of course dill is not a substitute to mint, but it adds a nice flavor. I hope I helped. Enjoy! Mariette

Thank you so much for sharing your recipes! I'm curious, when this is fully baked, do you toss out the tops of the tomatoes and peppers wher the stem was, or are they edible? I'm growing lots of vegetables this year, I am going to try this for sure!

glad you liked the Greek stuffed tomato recipe. Please share your experience with me, i will greatly appreciate it.:) enjoy! Mariette

@SGmom2 Give it a try. It's very tasty. We love it! and please share your experience with us we would love to hear from you. Mariette.

Charlie looks precious!

Thank you! It is delicious too. Yes it is very easy to prepare. Give it a try and if you have any question on this or any other video you may want to try, I will be glad to help. :) Mariette

Glad you liked the Greek stuffed tomato recipe. please i would greatly appreciate if you give it a try and share your experience with us. Enjoy! :) Mariette

It is yummy and easy to prepare. you can cook the Greek stuffed tomatoes on the stove if you like but you have to add a little more liquid to it. We always include rice or in some cases bulgur in our stuffed vegetables. We don't add rice only when we stuff baby zucchini. I'll upload the video when I find baby zucchini on the market. Many don't like parsley or mint. You just exclude what you don't fancy from the recipe to adjust it to your taste. We do it all the time. Enjoy! Mariette

@AbouALTarab Thank you very much for your nice comment. I am glad you liked The Greek stuffed tomatoes recipe. Enjoy! Mariette

@HowToExpo : thanks for reply, i will keep an eye on it to see if i get any new videos.

Hello fellow foodies! Thanks for stopping by and saying hi. We gave you a like and a sub-all the best to you!

@imaboygenius Looks delicious and tastes delicious too. Give it a try. and let me know how do you like it. All comments and inputs are greatly appreciated. Enjoy! Mariette

I am glad you loved the Greek stuffed tomatoes. the rice is just cooked few minutes prior to the stuffing. The meat in this recipe needs to be cooked perfectly well but not the rice. Give it a try and share your experience with us. it will be appreciated. Enjoy! :) Mariette

Hi Mariette , may i ask on the cooking tempreture , did you say 430degrees . F ? at 1:00 to 1:20 hrs. Look great by the way , thank you .......

Love the recipe but I have a question...Is the rice completely uncooked when you mix it with the meat? or have you precooked it a little bit?

great recipe thank you for sharing :) may i know what all spice is?

@GrayWulf316 I have another recipe in which the meat and the rice are not cooked prior to the stuffing. preparing the way demonstrated in the Greek stuffed tomatoes video, results totally different taste. Both recipes are great, only different. Mariette

@MrEZCooking Give it a try. They are delicious. Don't hesitate to ask any question you may have to make the Greek Stuffed Tomatoes a successful dish. Enjoy! Mariette

You can toss it away if you like but the tops are edible just discard the stem part.

@jonnightrain You're welcome. Don't hesitate to ask any wuestion you may have. I will be glad to answer. Enjoy! Mariette

I was about to ask the same question

What are options instead of beef for vegetarians? And how is this cooked if you have no oven either? Thanks.

@sakinehbs Hi There, I am not sure, you should be receiving updates whenever we upload a video. There was a short period of time where we didnt upload anything, perhaps that may be the reason. I also just subbed back to your channel as well. Let me know if you still cant see any of our new videos. Thank you for letting us know of the issue. Mariette

Charlie is sooo cute!

you could use minute rice instead less baking but this looks fablous

@ruiz1707 You're welcome.

You're welcome! Yes there is a vegetarian version of this dish. Visit my channel and search for Best stuffed grape leaves. You can use the stuffing of the grape leaves to stuff the tomatoes. Give it aa try and let me know how do you like it. I will appreciate it. Enjoy! Mariette

@HotKitchenOnline Hi my foodie friend, of course I have subbed back!! Thanks for your comment!

the seeds are not good fro your stomach and intestines. so, wht I would do is, cut the tops of and sqeeze the tomatoes upside down first, strain the juice to separate the liquid from the seeds, and then scoop out remaining insides and chop them and mix with liquid

Looks nice I like your Dog too lol

What type of rice is required for this recipe please ?

looks lovely

I am curious did u have to cover dish with foil before it went in oven?

how come i dont' get any more video from you? i have check evry thing to make sure i'm not blocking myself , every thing is okay, but why no video come through?

you need to show what type of onion. big white?

Sounded good until you added mint.. highly allergic to the stuff.. Is there a substitute to the mint or would just leaving hat one thing out make much of a difference?

Hempstead Greek stuffed tomatoes and peppers

I could not hear what spice. It would be so much more he;lpful if the ingredients were printed.

Hi do you have Face Book ... Wish to see all your recipts on Face book as its much easyer to me ... thank you

Mine is way better. Try veal much nicer then ground beef, don't confuse with too much spice all you need is salt pepper garlic onion and parsley. Add the tomatoe try some crushed as you are still cooking the rice and meat. And simmer till all the flavors mesh together. Add the rest of the tomatoe and some olive oil when you put it in the baking dish. I also add some bread crumb on top of all the veggies. This helps them to NOT burn and adds a nice taste and texture.

MINT? Oh I dunno about mint.
