Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 medium Zucchini ((~1 1/2 lb))
2 tbsp Olive oil
1/4 tsp Sea salt
1/8 tsp Black pepper
6 oz Whole milk ricotta cheese
1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
1 large Egg
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 cup Mozzarella cheese ((shredded))
10 oz Tomato sauce ((no sugar added))
1/2 tbsp Olive oil
1/2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 clove Garlic ((finely minced))
Sea salt ((optional, to taste))
1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese ((shredded))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut off the ends of the zucchini. Use a mandolin to slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin sheets, 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) thick.
  • Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the lined baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Roast zucchini slices in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until soft and mostly dry.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together tomato sauce, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic. Adjust salt to taste if needed. Spread 3/4 cup (177 ml) of the sauce at the bottom of an 8x8 square glass casserole dish (this one is the perfect size). Reserve the remaining sauce for later. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together the ricotta, Parmesan, egg, and Italian seasoning.
  • Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on a large cutting board. Pat dry with paper towels to soak up any extra water or oil.
  • Spread a tablespoon of ricotta mixture over each zucchini slice. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of mozzarella. Roll up tightly and place sideways into the baking dish. Repeat with all the zucchini slices.
  • Top each zucchini roll with 1/2 tablespoon (7 ml) of the remaining sauce, then 1/2 tablespoon (7.05 g) of mozzarella.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes, until the cheese on top is melted. Garnish with fresh basil.

Provided by Artandkitchen

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 kg zucchini
1 red bell pepper
200 g feta cheese, light
150 g Philadelphia Cream Cheese, light
1 tablespoon oregano, for the cheese
1/2 tablespoon pepper, for the cheese
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon wheat flour
2 tablespoons parmigiano, grated
1 egg
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 tablespoon pepper, for the marinade
1/4 teaspoon oregano, for the marinade
1 garlic clove, pressed

Steps:

  • Slice the zucchini and heat in the oven at 180°C (heat and timing are basing it on convection oven) until slightly soft (5-10 minutes).
  • Prepare 20 squares of red peppers.
  • Prepare the fill with feta, Philadelphia cheese, oregano, pepper, breadcrumbs, flour, parmigiano cheese and egg. Work the mixture with a fork until everything is well incorporated.
  • Take some of the filling and roll it in one zucchini slice and fix with the spit.
  • Spike one zucchini roll followed by a piece of pepper, then the next zucchini roll and so on until you have 4 spits.
  • Prepare the marinade with oil, salt, pepper, oregano and garlic.
  • Brush the marinade on the spits and grill it in the oven until golden (it takes about 15 minutes).
  • Serve it hot or cold.
  • You can also serve the single rolls as appetizer.

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini: Fresh zucchini has a higher water content, which will help to keep your rolls moist. If you're using older zucchini, you may need to add a little extra liquid to the batter.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help to distribute the zucchini evenly throughout the rolls and prevent them from becoming too dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the rolls tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough to double in size and become light and fluffy.
  • Bake the rolls at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

Zucchini dinner rolls are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They're also a great way to use up leftover zucchini. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make these rolls at home. So next time you're looking for a new side dish, give zucchini dinner rolls a try!
