One way with chokos. I stuffed them using a mixture of mince and Maltese cheese. You can use ricotta if you don't have fresh Maltese cheese.

Cuisine: Maltese
Serves: 4 stuffed chokos
Ingredients
  • 150 grams of cooked mince (I added onion, garlic, tomato paste and garlic to the mince when frying)
  • 150 grams of fresh Maltese cheese (use ricotta if you do not have Maltese cheese)
  • 1 lighlty beaten egg
  • 2 tablespoons hard cheese such as dried Maltese cheese or parmesan
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 2 chokos cut in half length ways
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive oil
Instructions
  1. Scoop some flesh out of each of your 4 chokos (about 2 tablespoons each). Don't discard the flesh. This can be used in soup.
  2. Place the 4 chokos in a pot of boiling water and simmer for 20 minutes. You should be able to pierce a fork through the flesh although it will still be a little firm.
  3. Mix all the other ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Take out the chokos and place in a baking tray.
  5. Preheat oven to 160oc.
  6. Place an equal amount of the mixture into the chokos.
  7. Drizzle with a little olive oil.
  8. Place in the oven for about 45 minutes to an hour.
