- Make sure to finely chop the onions and garlic to ensure they cook evenly and blend well with the lamb mince.
- Use a high-quality pasta sauce for added flavor; you can even add some herbs like oregano and basil to the sauce if you prefer.
- For best results, grate the zucchini and squeeze out any excess water to avoid a watery bake.
- Allow the bake to rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven to let the flavors meld together and to make slicing easier.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrition and color.
