Most of folks across the world are no stranger to Indian cuisine.

Indians typically eat flatbread also known as ‘ Roti’ with cooked vegetables with spices. Now, Zucchini, while now, available in India freely is not something that is generally used for cooking. So this is truly a great vegetable to be had with flatbreads and trust me on this, its light on stomach, so juicy and super refreshing for the summers. And whatever diet you are on, I don’t care (as long as you are not allergic), but I strictly instruct you to use the coconut!! Period!

Recipe ( Serves 2)

Zucchini — 2

One small piece of coconut (grated)

Spices (Mustard seeds, asafoetida, curry leaves, half green chilly)

2 tspn oil

Now the magic:

  1. Dice the zucchini into small cubes
  2. Take a small non stick pan and add 2 tspn oil in it.
  3. Use some mustard for tempering ( 1 tspn ) and add chopped green chilly in it. Add some curry leaves in it.
  4. Now, add the diced zucchini in the pan and sautee it.
  5. Close the lid and let it become a little soft or al dente for next 5 minutes
  6. Open the lid, and add the freshly grated coconut on top of the vegetable / sabzi
  7. Take a flatbread and enjoy the magical combination.

I have had it consecutively for 2 days so you can understand it the best!!!

Say a prayer of gratitude for the food!

Love and Light ❤
