Light and healthy lavash wraps filled with zucchini and egg, steamed right in the pan.

Steamed Lavash with Zucchini and Egg is an excellent choice for those looking for a light yet filling meal. This recipe for Steamed Lavash with Zucchini and Egg was created to maximize the use of fresh ingredients with minimal calories. Using exactly 140g of zucchini, we create a base that makes the dish juicy without unnecessary carbs. Steamed Lavash with Zucchini and Egg uses a stovetop steaming technique, preserving all nutritional values without the need for frying oil. Zucchini pairs perfectly with the protein in eggs, and the addition of dill gives it a fresh, spring aroma. By keeping the cheese to a minimum, the dish remains diet-friendly while being flavorful. It’s an ideal solution for a quick dinner or light lunch when you don't have access to an oven but want something warm and homemade. The key to success is covering the pan tightly, allowing the lavash to soften and absorb the flavors of the filling. The flavor of the hard cheese perfectly highlights the delicacy of the vegetables, creating a cohesive and tasty composition. Try this recipe if you value simplicity and a healthy lifestyle.

    Roll the lavash tightly into a cylinder or fold it into an envelope.
  7. 7
    Place the lavash on a cold pan. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of water onto the bottom around the roll.

Chef's Tips

  • If you're worried about the lavash sticking, you can line the pan with a piece of parchment paper before adding the water.
  • Make sure the zucchini is well squeezed so the filling isn't too watery.
  • You can add a pinch of your favorite dried herbs inside to enhance the aroma.
