Peel the shallot and then chop finely. Rinse the thyme, spin dry, and chop. Rinse the oregano, spin dry, and chop. Wash and trim the zucchini, then use a vegetable peeler to slice or slice lengthwise into thin strips. Mix the minced meat, shallot, oregano, thyme, breadcrumbs, egg, and a little salt and pepper to make a mince mixture. Lay two strips of zucchini crosswise and place some of the mince mixture in the middle. Then fold the zucchini strips upwards, press down lightly, and secure with toothpicks.

Place the baking dish in a preheated oven and let the parcels cook for about 30 minutes at 180°C. Arrange rice on plates, pour the tomato sauce over it and place some zucchini parcels on top.
