Description
These zucchini egg rolls are light, savory, and filled with a creamy herbed yogurt spread. They make a refreshing appetizer, snack, or light meal with plenty of fresh flavor.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 pinch salt
- 1.5 tablespoons sour cream
- 3 medium zucchini (500 grams when weighed whole), grated and moisture squeezed out
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 tub plain yogurt (375 grams), strained overnight
- 1 pinch salt
- 1/3 cup diced pickles or grated cucumber
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
Instructions
- Place the yogurt in a cheesecloth and strain overnight until very thick.
- Combine the strained yogurt, salt, pickles or cucumber, dill, and garlic in a bowl. Mix well and refrigerate until needed.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Whisk together the eggs and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the sour cream.
- Add the grated, well-drained zucchini and flour. Mix until evenly combined.
- Line a 16 x 12-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil the parchment.
- Spread the zucchini mixture into a thin, even rectangle on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly golden on the bottom.
- Allow the zucchini egg sheet to cool completely.
- Spread the prepared yogurt filling evenly over the surface.
- Starting from one edge, tightly roll the zucchini sheet into a log.
- Slice into pieces and serve immediately, or refrigerate for about 1 hour before slicing for cleaner cuts.
Notes
- Thick Greek yogurt can be used instead of straining plain yogurt.
- Herbed cream cheese may be substituted for the yogurt filling.
- Be sure to squeeze excess moisture from the zucchini for the best texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
