Recipe(Full recipe with photos you can find on my blog)
🧾 Ingredients

**For the rolls:**

* 1 large zucchini (or 2 small), sliced lengthwise
* 9 strips cheese (mozzarella or gouda work great)
* 9 strips ham
* 2 eggs, beaten
* Flour (for coating)
* Panko breadcrumbs

**For the filling:**

* 2 medium potatoes, boiled & mashed
* 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
* 2–3 slices bacon, cooked and diced
* Salt (to taste)
* ½ tsp garlic powder
* ½ tsp paprika

# 👨‍🍳 Steps

1. **Slice the zucchini** Cut into thin strips (not too thin or they’ll break).
2. **Bread them** Coat each strip in flour → dip in egg → cover in panko. Set aside.
3. **Prep fillings** Cut cheese and ham into strips that fit the zucchini.
4. **Make the potato mix** Combine mashed potatoes + bacon + parsley + spices. Mix well.
5. **Assemble** Lay a zucchini strip flat → add ham + cheese → spread a thin layer of potato mix → roll it up.
6. **Skewer them** Place about 3 rolls per skewer to keep them secure.
7. **Bake** 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes until golden and crispy.
