Zucchini in batter with minced meat, home-style
Description
The recipe won't take much time. At the peak of zucchini season, they are added to all sorts of dishes. So I decided to make zucchini patties, but instead of adding them to the mince, I used them as a casing for the patties. The result was very original and delicious. Serve hot.

Step 1
Prepare all the necessary ingredients. If you are using a young zucchini, you can leave the skin on, but if the zucchini is not young and has thick, tough skin, it's better to peel it.
