Quick and easy Zucchini stir fry- 3 ingredients only

Quick and easy Zucchini stir fry


Stir fries are the healthiest cooked ‘quick meals’ EVER. You can make this even more quick by choosing not to blanch and peel those tomatoes as I have done. My kids hate tomato skins. But I skip this step when in a hurry and it still tastes great!!!


Blanch tomatoes in boiling water for a minute, plunge it in cold water, peel, seed and chop. Slice the zucchini. You can straightaway slice to make rounds or halve or quarter lengthwise first and then slice. Peel and chop garlic.


Heat a tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok. When oil starts shimmering, add the garlic and stir taking care not to let the colour change. Add the zucchini and keep stirring for a minute. You can cook it longer if you like, but then zucchini will lose its crispness. Add salt and pepper to taste and finally add tomatoes and stir to mix.

Serve hot with rice or chapathi.  May be next time, we’ll try this in a sandwich!!!
