Mother's Always Right Stuffed Peppers

Be warned, listen to my mother- when she says to be careful with the peppers when straining because they may fall apart, it means be careful with the peppers when straining because they may fall apart. I broke 2 out of 3 peppers because of my lack of direction following. I had to use the broken peppers and cut them in half, laying the filling on the top.

Steps

Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
Bring 1 cup of rice , 2 cups of water , and teaspoons butter to a boil.
Lower to med-high flame , and cook for 18 minutes with lid on , stirring occasionally.
In the meantime , wash peppers.
Cut a half an inch around the stem of the peppers.

When the water comes to a boil again , simmer for 12 minutes.
