Bean-stuffed Patty Pan
serves 4 as a side dish
2 large (6") patty pan squashes, steamed/boiled 10 mins
250g shelly beans, boiled for 10 mins
1 large red onion, chopped
5 garlic cloves, crushed
chilli to taste, sliced thinly
1 tbsp sunflower oil
450g patty pan/courgette flesh, cubed
5 carrots, cubed
1 red pepper (optional: I hate them)
250g tomatoes, skinned & chopped
100g rice
150ml stock or tomato juice
cheese, grated
1. Preheat oven to 190c. Cut the patty pans in half lengthwise, place in a roasting dish. Scrape out the flesh & set aside
2. saute the onion in oil 5 mins, add garlic and saute another 2 mins
3. add rest of ingredients except cheese
4. cook the mixture until fairly thick and breaking down. Mash up with a fork, & season
5. scoop mixture into patty pan shells & top with grated cheese
6. bake in oven at 190c for about 20 mins, until cheese is bubbling
I just made this up, I won't be tasting it until 7pm: I'll let you know how it went.

I've never thought of steaming/boiling small squash before, I think I'll give that a go next time!
