To make kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese, fill cleaned kapya peppers with lor cheese mixed with herbs and seasoning, then bake or cook them covered in a pan until tender. Parsley, dill, black pepper and a little olive oil make a simple filling.
Lor is a mild, soft Turkish cheese made from whey, so kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese has a lighter, less salty filling than versions made with feta. It is crumbly rather than stretchy; herbs or a little olive oil can help bind the filling.
Yes, red bell peppers can stand in for the long, sweet kapya peppers in kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese. Choose peppers that can sit upright or cut them lengthwise to make filling easier; their shape and cooking time may differ from kapya peppers.
No, roasting is optional for kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese. You can fill the peppers raw and cook them until tender, or roast them first for a softer texture and smoky flavor. Roasted peppers are more delicate, so handle them gently when filling.
Kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese can be served hot, warm or cold. Hot peppers have a softer, creamier filling, while chilled ones hold their shape better and work well as part of a light meal or a Mediterranean-style spread.
Serve kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese with a crisp salad, plain yogurt or crusty bread. For a more substantial meal, add rice or bulgur; the mild cheese filling pairs well with fresh, tangy sides rather than another rich dish.
Yes, you can prepare kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese ahead by mixing the filling and cleaning the peppers, then keeping both covered in the refrigerator until cooking. For the best texture, fill the peppers shortly before baking so the raw peppers do not release excess moisture into the cheese.
Kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese keeps in a covered container in the refrigerator for about three days. Refrigerate leftovers once they have cooled, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat; discard them if their smell or texture has changed noticeably.
Yes, but freezing can soften the kapya peppers and change the crumbly texture of the lor filling. Cool the cooked peppers completely, freeze them in a sealed container, and thaw them in the refrigerator before reheating; they may be less firm than freshly cooked ones.
Yes, feta can replace lor in kapya pepper stuffed with lor cheese, but the result will be saltier and firmer. Crumble the feta finely and taste the filling before adding salt; mixing it with a little plain yogurt can make it easier to stuff into the peppers.

Kapya Pepper Stuffed with Lor Cheese is a Turkish home-style dish: sweet, fleshy kapya peppers are filled with lor, a mild, fresh Turkish whey cheese, and cooked until tender. The gentle tang of the cheese balances the pepper’s sweetness; herbs or spices may be added to the filling depending on the cook.
Serve it warm or at room temperature as part of a meze spread, or pair it with salad for a light lunch. It offers protein as well as vitamin C, making it a satisfying meat-free option. For a lighter finish, bake the peppers rather than frying them.
