Squash stuffed with minced meat

Method

1. 01

   I want to share with you a great way to make delicious zucchini stuffed with minced meat. The most important thing in this dish is to prepare the right minced meat (veal + pork is optimal), as well as buy large-sized zucchini.

2. 02

   Put the meat in a deep dish.

3. 03

   Add 1 chicken egg to the ground.

4. 04

   Cut the greens, half the bulb, add them to the mince.

5. 05

   4 spoonfuls of rice boil, wash in a dud, let the water drain. Add rice to minced meat for our future dish.

6. 06

   Half of the large carrots rub on the smallest grater and add to a dish with minced meat.

7. 07

   Add salt and black ground pepper to the minced meat, and then mix thoroughly. As a result, we will get a ready-made filling for zucchini.

8. 08

   Now you need to prepare the zucchini themselves. To do this, clean the zucchini from the skin with a vegetable knife and cut in thick mugs, as in the photo.

9. 09

   We cut the core so that we have rings, as shown in the photo. We will use the squash in the roast later.

10. 10

    We'll fill the zucchini rings with minced meat. We got a lot of stuffed squash. They can be cooked either in a pan or in the oven - I chose the first method of cooking. Since they didn’t fit in the pan, some of them had to be frozen.

    To cook in a pan, it is necessary to prepare vegetables for roasting so that our dish is more aromatic. For roasting, it is best to rub the remaining half of the carrots on a large grater, finely cut onions, tomatoes and squash pulp.

12. 12

    Then we heat vegetable or olive oil in the pan and stew all these vegetables under the closed lid for 10 minutes, remembering to salt and pepper them.

13. 13

    When the vegetables are slightly extinguished, add stuffed zucchini a little dipping them in roasting. Then cover the lid and extinguish for 40-50 minutes on a small fire.

14. 14

    And as a result, we get something like this.

    Puffed zucchini is best served with sour cream.
