2 gousses d’ail émincées (hello, flavor!)

100 g de fromage râpé (because cheese makes everything better)

Instructions étape par étape

Here’s where the magic happens. Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be devouring those courgettes in no time.

Coupez les courgettes en deux et évidez-les. Scoop out the insides like a pro. It’s therapeutic, I swear.
Dans un bol, mélangez la viande hachée, l’oignon, l’ail, le fromage, l’huile d’olive, le sel, le poivre et les herbes. Just mix it all together—like a happy cooking party.
Remplissez les courgettes avec la farce. Stuff them good. Make them like overstuffed burritos, but like, veggie style.

Préchauffez l’air fryer. You want it nice and toasty before you throw in those beauties.
Disposez les courgettes farcies dans l’air fryer et faites-les cuire à 180°C pendant environ 12-15 minutes, jusqu’à ce qu’elles soient dorées et cuites. Keep an eye on them. You want that golden perfection.
Servez chaud et savourez ! You can either impress your friends or just enjoy a quiet moment with your stuffed courgettes. You do you!

Erreurs courantes à éviter

Alright, time for some real talk. Here are a few things you want to avoid if you want your courgettes to come out glorious.

Ne pas préchauffer l’air fryer. Rookie mistake. Your courgettes will be sad and undercooked.

Trop de remplissage. Stuffing is great, but if it spills out, it’s just a hot mess. Literally.
Oublier l’assaisonnement. Seriously, don’t be that person who skips on salt. Your dish will taste like cardboard.
Penser que les courgettes n’ont pas besoin d’être évitées. You want to remove that watery insides so you don’t end up with a soggy mess.

Alternatives & substitutions

You know what’s great about cooking? It’s all about creativity! Here are some alternatives if you want to jazz things up a bit.

Viande hachée: If you’re not feeling beef or chicken, try turkey or even a veggie substitute like lentils or quinoa. Go full-on plant-based if you like.
Fromage: Got a cheese obsession? Mix it up! Feta, goat cheese, or even a spicy pepper jack can do wonders.

Herbes de Provence: Don’t have this magical mix? Italian seasoning works too. Just don’t get too crazy and grab the pumpkin spice, please.

FAQ

Can I use a different kind of vegetable? Absolutely! Bell peppers, eggplants, or mushrooms are great alternatives. Just make sure to adjust cooking times.

What if I don’t have an air fryer? Then you could bake them in an oven. Just prepare for a longer wait. Seriously, air fryers are the champions of time!

How do I store leftovers? Wrap them up tightly and stash them in your fridge. They’ll keep for a few days, but let’s be real— they probably won’t last that long.

Can I skip the cheese? Technically yes, but why hurt your soul like that? Cheese is life.

Are these courgettes suitable for meal prep? You bet! Just make sure to reheat them gently so they don’t lose their character.
