Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Zucchini Base

Begin by grating the zucchini using a large grater. Let it sit for about 3 minutes to release excess moisture. After that, make sure to squeeze out all the liquid using your hands.

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini with the eggs, rice flour, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together until you achieve a well-combined mixture.

Step 2

Bake the Zucchini Mixture

Spread the zucchini mixture evenly onto a silicone baking mat, shaping it into a rectangle or square. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) before placing the baking mat inside. Bake for approximately 35-40 minutes until the surface turns golden brown.

Ensure that not just the edges are golden, but the entire surface has a lovely golden hue.

Step 3

Prepare the Filling

While the zucchini base is baking, prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine the sour cream, finely grated cheese, and minced garlic. Mix these ingredients thoroughly to create a smooth mixture.

Step 4

Assemble the Roll

Once the zucchini base is baked, remove it from the oven and spread the prepared filling over the entire surface. Use fresh, ripe, and juicy tomatoes for the best flavor. Slice the tomatoes and arrange them on top of the filling.

Now carefully roll the zucchini mixture into a tight roll, ensuring that the filling stays in place.

Step 5

Serve and Enjoy

Slice the zucchini roll into pieces and serve immediately. This dish is delicious and satisfying, perfect for any occasion! Enjoy your meal!

Variations

Looking for alternatives? We’ve got you covered!

**For a gluten-free version**, simply replace rice flour with a gluten-free all-purpose blend. Just make sure it has a binding property, or consider adding a bit of gluten-free pasta to achieve the desired texture!

**For a vegan twist**, swap eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water (1 tablespoon flaxseed + 2.5 tablespoons water = 1 egg). Additionally, choose vegan cheeses and a dairy-free sour cream alternative! This way, everyone can enjoy a tasty roll-up! 🌱😋

Faq

  • Can I use other vegetables instead of zucchini?

    Absolutely! Carrots or sweet potatoes can work well too, but adjust the cooking time as needed.

  • How do I know when the roll-up is done baking?

    Look for a nice golden color all around. Insert a toothpick; if it comes out clean, it's ready!

  • Can I prepare this in advance?

    Yes! Make the roll-up ahead of time and store it in the fridge. Just reheat before serving!

  • How long can I store leftovers?

    Leftovers can be placed in an airtight container and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

  • What can I add to the filling for extra flavor?

    Consider adding some herbs like dill or parsley, or even sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of flavor!

  • Is it okay to freeze the roll-up?

    Yes! Wrap tightly and freeze, but for best quality, eat within a month.
