User:Schnugs/Sandbox

Schnugs is a traditionally English dish, originating from the town of Long Eaton in Derbyshire.

A mixture of tomato purée, rice, onions, mushrooms and chopped tomatoes (seasoned with fresh herbs and spices)is stuffed into a hollowed red pepper and roasted. The pepper can then be finished with a topping of feta cheese which can be grilled for a browned effect.

Schnugs has roots in Danish traditional cooking, from the Skagen area, and is not a particularly famous dish outside of England. Which is a shame, as it is a filling and healthy meal option and the filling can be adapted to suit all tastes.

Following my research, i have discovered that Schnugs is generally served as a main course plate, followed by a flan containing a boiled sweet milk substance (known in other parts of the world as Dulce de Leche).

Despite its origins, many people are unware of Schnugs as an english dish and may refer to them as 'stuffed peppers' or 'morrones rellenos'.
