Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 15 minutes

Peel the cucumbers, trim off the ends, and split them in half. Carefully remove the seeds from the cucumber halves using a knife. Season the minced meat with the egg, diced onion, salt, and pepper, and mix well. Carefully press the minced meat into the cucumber pieces. Heat a pan with a little oil and add the cucumber pieces, then brown them lightly on all sides. Remove the cucumbers from the pan and brown the flour in the pan. Deglaze with the stock, add the cucumbers to the pan, and simmer for about 45 minutes. This goes well with mashed potatoes or simply boiled potatoes.
