Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Prepare all the necessary ingredients.

Step 2

Step 2
Young, medium-sized zucchini is best suited for making rolls. The zucchini needs to be washed and cut lengthwise into plates approximately 5 mm thick. Place the plates on a cutting board, add salt and leave for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Step 3
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the zucchini on both sides until cooked. For the rolls, we use only the middle parts of the zucchini, since the side parts are coarser and do not roll up well; they can be prepared according to the classic recipe — with garlic and mayonnaise.

Step 4

Step 4
While the zucchini is cooling, prepare the filling for the rolls: grate the processed cheese on a fine grater, pass the garlic through a press or grate it too. Season the cheese and garlic filling with ground black pepper, add salt if necessary and season with mayonnaise — the filling is ready. Cut the tomato into small cubes, wash the parsley and dry it.

Step 5

Step 5
Take a cold fried zucchini and spread a small layer of cheese-garlic mixture on its entire surface on one side. Then place a piece of tomato on the wider edge of the zucchini. Place small sprigs of parsley next to the tomato. Now carefully wrap the roll and place it on a lettuce leaf. Do this with all the fried zucchini slices.

Step 6
Ready-made rolls will look great both on the family dinner table and at a magnificent feast. This is a great savory appetizer. The dish is very filling. Zucchini rolls with melted cheese are ready! Bon appetit!
