"A good five stars with the sauce. This is DH's favorite meal and mine too right now. Modified from The Complete Middle East Cookbook by Tess Mallos (She is Greek). This is well worth the effort.

"A really basic and savory recipe that makes good use of fresh summer zucchini. Lamb naturally tastes great with garlic and onion, while the zucchini and cayenne pepper add a fresh kick. The spicy yogurt is like a cool relief over top, and not too spicy to overwhelm."

"This is another Arabic dish I learned while living in Syria. This dish is a lot of work but well worth it.To make it correctly, the zuchini must be very small, under 6" long. Hollowing them out perfectly takes years of practice but you can still use zuchinis that you have poked holes through. Try to hollow them out as much as possible so the walls..."
