Original recipe from "Home Book of Turkish Cookery" by Venice Lamb. May have been posted or I got off the Vegetarian page. Recipe was adjusted and adopted 12 Ap 96 when the grocer stocked BIG zucchini.
NOTES : Dolma Ici Zeytinyagli is a Turkish stuffing for eggplants, peppers, tomatoes and zucchini.
