Perhaps the recipe is useful for those who follow a diet, try not to eat fried and fatty foods. This recipe for cheese rice with courgettes can add variety to the seemingly meager diets of this lifestyle. For example, I really like the so-called "monastery" food. Simple, affordable, satisfying, versatile, healthy. Pets do not mind! In addition, such dishes are a wide field for a wide variety of gravies, sauces, chutneys for every taste. Let's try?

I recommend taking round grain rice, in this recipe, it seems to me that more juicy rice will be appropriate. And be responsible for the choice of cheese. It should have a salty, possibly tangy taste. Tasteless cheeses, cheese products … passing by. The dish should have a cheese flavor.

Rinse the rice, cover with water (2 glasses). I immediately added spices: a little black pepper and asafoetida. Salt the water. Bring rice to a boil and cook for 20 minutes.

Put zucchini grated on a fine grater into the cooked hot rice. We use only the pulp (no skin and hard seeds). You can grind very young zucchini whole.

Add finely grated cheese.

Stir all listed foods. Cover and let stand for 5-7 minutes. I have an electric stove, so I put the rice back on the already switched off, but still warm, even hot burner. As a result, the rice will melt, and the zucchini will be slightly steamed, stewed from hot rice.

Cheese rice with zucchini is ready! When serving, be sure to add all sorts of delicious sauces!
