In a bowl, mix the sauce ingredients together with 3 cups water and pour them over the zucchini.

Stuffed Round Zucchini Stuffed Round Zucchini
This dish came about because I fell in love with these little beauties when visiting a new Asian supermarket. I just had to buy them, they were so adorable! Although labeled Zucchini on the packaging, I had never seen this round variety before - either in any supermarket or Farmer's Market in the Central Florida area.They are ideal as an appetizer or a vegetarian main dish served with some crusty bread or naan bread. Don't be fooled by their size - they are surprisingly filling and we loved the flavor of the smoked paprika!Based on a recipe for Vegan Petits Farcis (small stuffed vegetables) from www.cilantroandcitronella.com Niki Freeman -
