2. Cut tomatoes from the top making sure not to cut through the slice, forming a lid for our tomatoes. Using a teaspoon, scoop the inside of the tomatoes, being really careful not to punch through them. Grate the inside of the tomatoes, add the tomato paste and give it a stir. Save it for later.
3. Cut the peppers the same way as the tomatoes and take out the seeds. Do the same for the two potatoes, empty them and create a space. Cut the eggplant and the zucchini in half and empty them as well.
4. Grate the onions and place them in a skillet with half of the olive oil over medium heat. Crush and add the garlic. Chop the red pepper and add it in the skillet and sauté.
5. Cook until soften and add the tomato. Add the herbs and give it a stir.
6. Add the fresh parsley and cook for 5-6 minutes. Add the rice and salt excessively.

Fill in the vegetables with a spoon leaving some space for the rice to cook, it will double in size during cooking. Cut the potato into chunks, sprinkle them with some salt and tomato paste and place them between the stuffed vegetables. Add the rest of the olive oil and some tomato sauce.
