Delicious Sunshine-Inspired Zucchini Curry Recipe

    This was a really nice curry recipe and a good way to use up surplus zucchini. We enjoyed over basmati rice tonight. We used Greek yogurt to thicken, but are thinking that maybe coconut milk (if I had a can open to justify 2 Tb) might have been the way to go for added flavor. Thanks for posting!

    Sunny Zucchini Curry,I was looking for a curry recipe to use up some of the lovely yellow squash & zucchini we have growing and came across this style of curry on a blog called yummyoyummy. According to the original author, it’s a Kerali style dish, and it is certainly very easy to prepare. I changed the cooking process slightly, and added in the leek which is much better than onion in this dish. If you can use yellow squash/zukes here, the end colour will be a beautiful light chartreuse. Servings are a bit of a guess, I think you would serve this alongside a few other things, would be enough for 4 in that case.,This was a really nice curry recipe and a good way to use up surplus zucchini.

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Begin by Heating the Oil Over Medium and Then Adding in the Leek. Allow It to Cook For a Few Minutes and Become Tender, Turning That Beautiful Shade of Bright Green. Add in the Garlic and Let That Cook For a Few Minutes.

    2
    Done

    Next Add the Turmeric, Chili Powder, Fresh Green Chili and Salt. Let That Cook For Just a Few Minutes Then Add in the Zucchini.

    3
    Done

    Add Just Enough Water to the Pot to Nearly Cover the Zucchini, About 1/2 an Inch Below. Cover Loosely and Let That Cook Until the Zucchini Is Tender, About 10 Minutes.

    4
    Done

    Meanwhile, Grind Up the Coconut Flakes and Cumin. a Coffee Grinder That You Use For Spices Works Best. You Want It to Be Quite Fine, Even Paste Like.

    5
    Done

    Once the Zukes Are Cooked, Stir in the Coconut/Cumin Mixture - Mix It in Well. Turn Off/Move Off the Heat and Then Add in a Few Tbsp of Creamer (or Yogurt or Coconut Milk). Adjust Seasoning.

    6
    Done

    Cover Loosely and Let Sit. the Coconut Needs Some Time to Become Tender -- Otherwise It Could Feel Chewy. It May Seem Thin at First, but It Will Thicken Up a Bit. You Can Always Leave It to Sit on the Back Burner For a While and Reheat Gently Prior to Serving If You Like.
