Zucchini goes perfectly with any minced meat. They remain juicy, absorb the aroma of garlic in the cooking, which is set by the creamy taste of cheese. Zucchini with minced meat in the oven is very simple and quick to cook.
The delicate texture of zucchini has only one drawback – not a very expressive taste. On the other hand, you can combine the vegetable with literally all other products. Zucchini is used to make soups, vegetable stews, casseroles, jams and even compote. A little grated pulp of the fruit in the cutlet makes it juicy and soft. Zucchini is easy to bake in the oven. In combination with minced meat, tomatoes and cheese sauce, they become an elegant and light dish that can also be served on the festive table.
