This olive-oil dish with zucchini, rice, and dill is a light and practical recipe made during the abundant summer zucchini season. It becomes part of summer tables when served cold, and of everyday meal tables when served warm.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sauté the onion

5 min

In olive oil, sauté finely chopped onion until softened.

2

Add the zucchini and tomato

5 min

Add diced zucchini and grated tomato, and sauté for a few minutes.

3

Add the rice and water and cook

15 min

Add washed rice and water, then add the salt; cook over low heat until the zucchini and rice are soft. Note: Do not chop the zucchini too small, otherwise it may fall apart and release its water.

4

Serve

5 min

Once lukewarm, serve sprinkled with dill.

Reminder

Important: If you chop the zucchini too small, it may mash and release its liquid during cooking, so prefer medium-sized cubes. Allergen: contains no common allergens.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Adding the rice halfway through cooking lets it absorb the zucchini's liquid, improving the consistency.
