Mince filled courgette

Thursday 30 April 2009


Time of preparation: 35 min

2 medium sized courgettes
1 tbspoon of olive oil
1/2 onion, finnely chopped
1 clove of garlic
300g of mince
parsley and chives

Cut the ends of the courgettes and then slice then, lenghtwise. Remove the filling with the help of a spoon, shaping them as a boat. Heat up the olive oil and add the onion and garlic, frying it for about 2 min. Add the mince and the fillings of the courgettes. Cook it untill the courgette has melted. Season with sal, pepper, parsley and chives. Let it dry and reserve.

Fill each of the courgette "boats" and put them in a roasting tray, covering them with kitchen foil. Roast it for 15 min or until the boats are cooked.

Serve it with white rice.

Comment: Honestly, this taste as good as the mince with courgette recipe (click here) which is much easier to cook (and I believe it tastes a bit better). This recipe just looks nicer, so it's good to serve for guests, if you want to impress them...On a day to day basis, I'd definately prefer the simpler one.
