Ingredients
- 9 sm Zucchinis 15 cm
- 1 1/2 c. Minced onion
- 2 c. Minced celery
- 50 ml Extra virgin olive oil Pepper (as much as you like)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 100 gm Brown rice
- 225 ml Boiling water
- 100 gm Bread crumbs
- 1 c. Parsley
- 2 x Large eggs, separated
- 3 x Lemons
Directions
- 1. Either core zucchini or possibly split in half lengthwise and scoop out innards.
- Chop this up and set aside.
- 2. Chop onion and celery fine. Put onion, celery, extra virgin olive oil, rice, water, pepper and salt in a pot, and cook over medium heat for 25 min.
- 3. Meanwhile, put juice of 2 lemons in a bowl with the egg whites and stir a bit. Put the juice of the third lemon in a bowl with the yolks and stir which a bit (put this in the fridge).
- 4. After the 25 min, add in the minced zucchini. Cook another 5 min to soften zucchini. Preheat oven to 180 degC . Place zucchini shells in baking dish.
- 5. Remove mix from heat. Add in parsley, bread crumbs, and egg white mix. Mix together. Either stuff cored zucchini (rinsing hands often in cool water since mix will be warm) or possibly fill zucchini "boats" in baking dish.
- 6. Bake in oven for 40 min, covered.
- 7. Remove from oven, get yolk mix from fridge. Add in any juice in pans to yolk mix while stirring. Spoon this mix over the top of the stuffed zucchini. Bake for 5 more min.
- Here's a recipe I tried last night (from Laurel's Kitchen). Since I didn't have some of the ingredients on hand, I substituted carrots for celery and pearled barley for the rice. It turned out ok.
- By the way, Laurel's Kitchen also has more zucchini recipes (it's at home, and the above is from memory). If you do not have LK yet, buy it.
- Difficulty : easy. Precisionmeasure ingredients.
