Stuffed Zucchini

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large pot, boil 1 cup (240 ml) water with rice for 8 minutes. Then, drain the water and, in the same pot, add all of the ground beef mixture and stir well.

2. 2

   With a sharp mandolin, peel even strips of the zucchini, cover with salt for 5 minutes (to draw out moisture), then rinse.

3. 3

   Place 1 tsp ground beef mixture on each layer of zucchini, roll into a sphere, and place roll back into the pot. Repeat with remaining zucchini strips.

4. 4

   Combine sauce ingredients in a separate bowl. Then, pour half of the sauce onto the rolls and cook on the stovetop for 20 minutes on medium heat.

5. 5

   Add the remaining sauce and finish off the dish in the oven at 350°F for 20 more minutes.

6. 6

   Serve warm.
