The anecdote did get one thing wrong: Meat is added and fried without any
water, the peppers stuffed and placed in a roasing pan, and then the pan
half-filled with a tomato-based sauce that helps finish cooking the rice. So
this rice is fried without prior cooking, then cooked, instead of the other
way around. Am I to understand that the other way around is somehow the
"proper" way to fry rice?

Don't a lot of people saute rice before cooking? I know my
grandmother did, so I assumed it was pretty common.
