appetizer

Slice the onion into thin rings, then the zucchini. Cut the carrots into thin strips. Cut a round shape out of the bread using a glass and toast briefly. Press the bread into a lightly oiled muffin tin, place the beaten and seasoned egg, herbs, smoked ham, two onion rings, and a zucchini slice on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 150°C for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the rice. Shortly before removing the muffin tins and rice, fry the thin steaks briefly and quickly. Turn the rice out onto a plate and use an espresso cup greased with a little oil. Garnish with the parsley. Arrange the carrot strips and a wedge of herb butter on the plate. Place the steak on a skewer and place it on top of the muffin tin. The starter is suitable for many main courses and offers variety, looks appealing, has been enjoyed by all of our friends/guests so far and whets the appetite for the main course.
