Stuffed vegetables and leaf rolls
Kousa mahshi is a hearty Syrian dish made by hollowing out zucchini, filling them with ground beef and rice, and simmering them in tomato sauce. It stays flavorful after cooling, so it can be packed to go.
Carefully hollow out the medium zucchini with a coring tool, without piercing the skin.
Mix the ground beef with the rinsed rice, grated tomato, and salt. Fill each zucchini about two-thirds full.
Arrange the stuffed zucchini in a wide pot. Pour over the water mixed with crushed tomatoes, crushed garlic, and olive oil. Cover and cook over low heat for 45 minutes.
Sprinkle the cooked zucchini with dried mint and serve hot.
Be careful not to pierce the zucchini skin while hollowing them out; liquid leaking through a hole can thin the filling and cause the stuffed zucchini to fall apart.
Domates sosunun kokusu bütün mutfağı sardı, kabaklar tam istediğim yumuşaklıkta pişti, ailem çok beğendi.
Kabakları oyarken ikisinin kabuğunu deldim, pişerken harç dışarı sızıp tencerede iyice dağıldı; kalanları çok daha dikkatli oyunca hiçbir sorun yaşamadım, sonuç gerçekten gayet iyi çıktı.
