Tips & variations
-
It is advisable to choose young zucchini (without seeds with a thin skin). They are perfect for casseroles.
-
To diversify the taste of the filling, you can add rice or even buckwheat boiled to half-cooked minced meat. However, keep in mind that buckwheat has a very bright taste, so you need to add it very little.
-
The fat content of the dish directly depends on the minced meat chosen. If it is chicken, the appetizer will be dietary. From pork or beef - more nutritious and high-calorie.
-
Fans of spicy dishes can use garlic in the recipe. It should be passed through a press or finely grated, and then added to the filling and sauce.
-
Perfectly complement the taste of appetizers - hard cheese. It must be grated on a fine grater and sprinkled over the dish 5 minutes before it is ready.

My zucchini according to this recipe turned out a little crispy, the next time I lightly fried them in flour before baking, and it turned out much tastier and juicier) Or, as an option, cut the zucchini mugs thinner))
