Instructions

1. Cut off the top of each zucchini and slice a little off the bottom so it stands up. Hollow them out with an apple corer or a small spoon.
2. Mix the rice, onion, parsley, green bell pepper, ground beef, tomato paste, olive oil, salt, black pepper, Aleppo pepper and dried mint in a bowl until well combined.
3. Stuff the zucchini loosely, leaving ½ inch empty at the top, as the rice expands while cooking.
4. Put a chunk of tomato on top of each zucchini.
5. Stand the stuffed zucchini upright in a pot.
6. Mix the olive oil, tomato paste, Aleppo pepper, dried mint and water for the sauce. Pour it over the zucchini and cover with a lid.
7. Cook over medium-high heat until it comes to a simmer, about 20 minutes.
8. Uncover and cook for 1 to 1½ hours, until a knife slides easily into the side of a zucchini.
9. Serve warm with yogurt.
