Method

  1. Wash the zucchini1, cut lengthwise in half along the long direction, and carefully scoop out the centers with a spoon; cut the zucchini flesh into 1–2 cm cubes; preheat the oven to 190 °C; prepare a baking dish about 20x30 cm, grease with a light layer of oil.

  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil, add onion3 and sauté until translucent about 3 minutes; add garlic7 and sauté another 30 seconds, stirring.

  3. Add ground2 meat and the zucchini1 flesh to the skillet, sauté over medium heat 7–8 minutes until brown and golden, stirring occasionally; salt and pepper to taste.

  4. Spoon the filling into the zucchini1 boats and place them tightly in the baking dish; place tomato4 slices on top of each boat, then add sour6 cream and sprinkle with cheese.

  5. Bake in the oven at 190 °C, uncovered, about 30 minutes; the top will turn golden and the cheese will melt; the filling will be cooked and juices will thicken.

  6. Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving; serve warm, with sour6 cream from the dish if desired.

Tips

Why it works
Лук обжаривай до полупрозрачности, чтобы он отдал влагу и не сделал фарш водянистым. Чеснок добавляй в конце, чтобы не сгорел и не горчил.
Substitutions
За сметану возьми йогурт 2.5% — 30 г, но сметана даст более насыщенный вкус. Вместо твёрдого сыра подойдёт тертый сычужный — 30 г.
Common mistakes
Если фарш внутри сырой или кабачки мягкие, значит, недожарил — проверяй зубчиком ножа через 25 минут.
Storing and reheating
Хранится 2 дня в холодильнике, разогревай в микроволновке 2 минуты под крышкой. Не замораживай — кабачки размякнут.
Serve with
Подавай с отварным картофелем или гречкой, чтобы сбалансировать блюдо углеводами.
