How to make Bolognese wrapped in zucchini slices
To prepare the Bolognese sauce, we are going to cook the very chopped vegetables, so that later they go unnoticed between the meat and the fried tomato, so we will have to dedicate some time to that step.
Add the minced meat and cook it over a high heat while changing color, seasoning lightly. When the meat is no longer red, add the tomato sauce and half a glass of water, letting the whole cook for ten minutes.
When there is no liquid left in the pan and our Bolognese begins to be a kind of compact paste, we turn off the heat and reserve while preparing the belts or sheets made with zucchini.
We cut Zucchini slices with a mandolin or with a sharp knife and we scald them for a minute in boiling water. Then we pass them through the pan to give it some color and use them to wrap each serving of Bolognese.
