Cooking instructions


The baby zucchini, pulp removed, are sautéed with a little olive oil until golden-brown and the skin is slightly wrinkled. The zucchinis are filled with a generous amount of the half-cooked mixture of ground lamb and pine nuts, after which they simmer over a gentle flame in the tomato puree dissolved with water.
