Istruzioni
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1cm border to create 'boats'. Chop the scooped-out flesh and set aside.
- 2.Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and garlic for 3-4 minutes until softened.
- 3.Add the minced beef to the pan, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned. Add the chopped zucchini flesh, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes until the zucchini has softened.
- 4.Place the zucchini boats in a baking dish. Spoon the beef mixture evenly into each boat.
- 5.Sprinkle the grated mozzarella over the top of the filled zucchini.
- 6.Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchini boats are tender and the cheese is melted and golden.
- 7.While the zucchini bakes, prepare the sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt, chopped dill, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
- 8.Serve the hot zucchini boats immediately with the cool yogurt sauce on the side.
