Lamb stuffed zucchini


Years ago, the first time I tried to make stuffed zucchini, i tried scooping out the insides with a spoon. As you could probably imagine, this was unsuccessful and pretty tiring on the arms. After watching on You Tube  how they're normally done, I finally found the instrument people normally use for only $3.50! 
- 6 large white zucchinis, washed
- 1 cup uncooked rice
- 300g lamb mince
- 2 cloves minced garlic                   
- 1 teaspoon mixed spice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon dried mint
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups beef stock
- 2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice

1. Cook rice until tender.

2. While rice is cooking, prepare zucchinis by washing well and scooping out the insides. 

3. Once rice is cooked, mix in the mince, garlic, spices, mint and butter in a bowl.

4. Stuff the mixture into the hollowed out zucchinis (don't be shy and under stuff them)

5. Place zucchinis in a large pot, cover with beef stock, water, and lemon juice and cook until zucchinis are tender. Around 1 hour. 

6. Serve with Koosa soup, or by themselves.
