| Vegetarian Stuffed Courgettes |
Stuffed courgettes is a very tasty main dish, well known among classic Italian Recipes but today I propose you a vegetarian recipe.
This recipe is even more interesting because you will use the whole courgette: its pulp for example will be added to the hummus to enrich the filling.
Ingredients for 3 people
- 8 courgettes
- hummus
- wholemeal bread crumbs
Preparation of vegetarian stuffed courgettes
Wash the courgettes. Even if there’s no visible dirt
you should always wash them under fresh running water to rinse them of
any pesticides or lingering bacteria. With your hand, gently rub the
skin of the zucchini while holding it under water until it no longer
feels gritty.
Trim off the ends and boil the courgettes whole in lightly salted water for at least 5/10 minutes, until soft. Cut the courgettes in half lengthwise, and scoop out the pulp in a bowl and keep aside. Mix together hummus and pulp. You can now lay your hollow courgettes on an oiled baking tray and fill the vegetables with the mix.

Run a fork on each courgette lengthwise in order to get a ridged surface and sprinkle with wholemeal bread crumbs.
Cook for 20-30 minutes at 180ºC and leave them too cool down for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes:
the stuffed courgettes are a perfect dish for summer (you can find the last courgettes in a market), to prepare well in advance to eat the day after!
In my family, filled courgettes were a very popular dish and an easy one to make with kids. It’s also a good way to get children to eat vegetables.
