Instructions to make Stuffed Zucchini:
  1. Begin by cutting each zucchini into 2 large pieces horizontally. If the zucchini is large, you could get 3 pieces out of it. With a knife, slowly pull out the flesh from the middle of the zucchini, so you will get an empty zucchini cup. Be careful to not cut through the end of the zucchini cup :). Take the zucchini flesh and keep aside
  2. In a sauce pan, bring a can of tomatoes to a boil. Add the ketchup and let it simmer to form a nice tomato sauce. You can always use some ready made tomato sauce and just warm it up
  3. In a pan, toss in the cumin seeds in some hot oil. Sauté the finely chopped onion, minced garlic and the zucchini flesh. Add the rice and the coriander and chilli powder. Give it a quick stir, add the required amount of salt and pepper. I leave the grated cheese until we get to stuffing the zucchini because you don't want it to melt just yet!
  4. When it comes to stuffing the zucchini, quickly add the grated cheese to the rice mix and stuff the zucchinis. Try not to break them and I felt using my fingers to gently press the rice down the cup helped. Put the zucchinis vertically in the tomato sauce. Put the lid on and let it cook. Make sure the fire is on low because the only thing that needs to cook are the zucchinis
  5. If you noticed I added no meat, and it is because I made it vegetarian. Adding meat is just delicious for this recipe, so add it right before you add the rice. You can discard the zucchini flesh if you plan on doing this
  6. The zucchinis will get nice and soft and go from a dark shade of green to a lighter green color. This means its done - should take about 20-30mins
  7. Slowly take it out of the pan and arrange it on a serving tray. Spoon the tomato sauce over these zucchini and serve hot!
  8. To make it more of a complete meal, you can make a salad, some home-made hummus and some pita bread
