• For the stuffed sweet peppers: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat some oil in a pan. Add the onions and cook until soft. Add the carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft. Transfer the onion mixture into a large mixing bowl. Fold the pork into the mixture. Add the rice, savory, dill, salt, pepper and paprika and blend well.
• Fill the peppers with the pork mixture. Place the peppers on a baking pan with raised sides. Add enough water to barely cover the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan with foil and bake, about 30 minutes. Uncover the foil and bake, about 3 minutes. Serve the peppers with the yogurt sauce.

STUFFED BABY BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the baby bell peppers in a single layer and cook, turning, until the skins blister and start browning, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the onion, poblano, garlic, cumin, oregano, ancho and chipotle chile powders and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the onion and poblano are tender, about 8 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the pork. Cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat; let cool.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Make a slit in each baby bell pepper with a paring knife, cutting from stem to tip. Crumble the meat mixture into small bits, then stir in the cilantro and cheese. Stuff 2 to 3 teaspoons of the meat mixture into each pepper using your fingers or a small spoon; transfer to a baking sheet. (The peppers can be stuffed up to 4 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before baking.)
• Bake until the peppers are hot and the cheese melts, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and serve with lime wedges.

STUFFED BABY BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Make filling:
• Cook onion and anchovies in oil in a heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until onion is golden, about 8 minutes. (Anchovies will dissolve.) Transfer to a bowl and stir in bread crumbs, cheeses, capers, eggs, and parsley until combined well.
• Stuff and bake peppers:
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Cut tops from baby peppers (keep stems on tops) and reserve. Cut a very thin slice from bottom of each pepper so it can stand upright (don't worry if you make a hole in bottom). Scoop out and discard seeds, then divide filling among peppers. Cover with reserved tops and arrange peppers upright in an oiled baking dish. Add water to dish and drizzle peppers with oil.
• Bake, uncovered, in middle of oven until peppers are tender and filling is puffed, 50 to 60 minutes.
