Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
- Slice the zucchini into thin long strips using a mandoline or a sharp knife. Lay out the zucchini slices on a sheet of parchment paper greased with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and let it sit for a while to release moisture.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, and sour cream until smooth. Gradually add flour to achieve a slightly thick but pourable batter.
- Pour the egg mixture over the zucchini strips on the parchment paper, ensuring an even coating.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the egg is set and slightly golden.
- In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese, chopped parsley, minced garlic, additional sour cream, salt, and smoked paprika until well combined.
- Once the zucchini base is baked, let it cool slightly. Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the baked zucchini.
- Place the sliced tomatoes and bell peppers evenly over the cottage cheese.
- Carefully roll the zucchini from one end to the other, wrapping the filling inside.
- Wrap the roll in the parchment paper and place it in the refrigerator for a few hours to set. This step is crucial for the roll to hold its shape.
- Once chilled and set, slice the roll into pieces. Serve chilled or at room temperature as a delightful appetizer or light meal.
