Ham Cheese Zucchini Roll – VIDEO RECIPE
how to cook Ham Cheese Zucchini Roll?
Шаг 1
To start, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Give the zucchini a good wash, cut off the stems, and grate them using a coarse grater.
TIPS: Both zucchini and courgettes can be used for this recipe.
TIPS: If you have a big zucchini, make sure to peel it and remove the mature seeds. This will give you a smoother texture and enhance the taste.
Шаг 2
Place the grated zucchini in a large bowl, sprinkle some salt over it, and let it sit for 5 minutes.
Шаг 3
While the zucchini is resting, wash the dill, dry it, and finely chop it.
TIPS: Fresh dill not available? No problem! You can use dried dill as a substitute in your dish.
Шаг 4
Now, add eggs to the grated zucchini, along with some dried garlic, flour, and the chopped dill. Mix everything together until well combined.
TIPS: Instead of using dried garlic, you can opt for a small clove of fresh garlic as a substitute. To prepare it, finely chop or use a garlic press to extract its flavor.
Шаг 5
Next, grease a baking sheet with oil and line it with parchment paper. Spread the zucchini dough evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Шаг 6
Pop it into the preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 30 minutes.

Once the baking time is up, take the baking sheet out of the oven, remove the parchment paper, and let it cool.
Шаг 8
While it’s cooling, cut the ham into strips
TIPS: Customize your recipes by replacing ham with smoked or boiled sausage according to your preference.
Шаг 9
Then wash the sweet pepper. Remove the stem and seeds from the pepper, then cut it into strips as well.
TIPS: If you don’t have fresh sweet peppers, frozen ones can come to the rescue. They are prepped and chopped, ready to be added to your dishes.
Шаг 10
Grate the cheese using a coarse grater.
TIPS: Pre-grated cheese is incredibly convenient for preparing a wide range of dishes.
Шаг 11
Heat a little vegetable oil in a frying pan over high heat. Add the chopped bell peppers and fry them over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Let them cool.
Шаг 12
Now, it’s time to assemble the zucchini roll. Place the chopped ham on top of the cooled zucchini crust, followed by the sweet pepper strips. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the top.
Шаг 13
Carefully roll the zucchini cake with the filling into a roll shape. Place the roll on a baking sheet and put it back into the oven, which should still be preheated to 180°C (350°F). Bake for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Шаг 14
Once the roll is done, take it out of the oven and let it cool.
Шаг 15
Finally, cut Ham Cheese Zucchini Roll into equal pieces and serve. Enjoy your meal!
