Directions

  1. We take one or more zucchini and cook them in a pan.
  2. It’s best if the pan has a rim so that any liquids that leak from the zucchini don’t “cook” the zucchini.
  3. During cooking, the zucchini is pierced with a fork to allow steam to escape.
  4. Once the zucchini is completely tender and most of its skin is caramelized, it is removed and cut into slices.
  5. Next, the pulp is removed, and the skins and other charred parts are discarded. ≈ 3 min
  6. The pulp (the “flesh”) should be finely chopped until a uniform texture is achieved, while leaving the seeds intact. ≈ 3 min
  7. We use a knife made of stainless steel or wood. ≈ 3 min
  8. (Personally, I think the stainless steel knife is the best option). ≈ 3 min
  9. We transfer the chopped zucchini to a bowl, add about a teaspoon of oil paint and salt to taste. ≈ 3 min
  10. We store it in the refrigerator and enjoy it later.
  11. P.S. – You can also add a teaspoon of mayonnaise and a clove of garlic, to taste. ≈ 3 min
