A very delicious little bite that will serve you well all through the party season. Filling mixture also works quite well when fried, though delicate!

You’ll be glad to know that this recipe can be either a Thermomix or non Thermomix recipe. I use prawn meat or chicken for these and as they are done in the steam oven they keep their shape and are easy to serve. If you are not using a steam oven, be careful not to over steam them because the zuchinni will fall apart quite easily if over done!

If you are using the Varoma to steam them they will hold together really well. Just delicious!
