Ingredients
- ⅓ cup (85 ml) oil more or less, as per your own preference
- 2 medium (220 g) onions sliced
- 1 teaspoon ginger + garlic paste
- 5 whole green chillies
- 2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1.5 teaspoon coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric
- 0.5-1 teaspoon red chilli powder as per preference
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1 tablespoon tomato puree
- 1.1 lb (½ kg) courgette (zucchini), sliced into thin semi-circles (no need to remove the skin if you can easily pierce it with your nail)
- A small handful of fresh coriander to garnish
Instructions
- Heat the oil or ghee in a pan. Add in all the ingredients except the courgettes and fresh coriander. Fry everything over a medium to high heat, stirring often until the onions become translucent and limp. We're not aiming to brown the onions. This will take about 5 minutes.
- Add the courgettes in and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and cook over a medium to low heat for 10 minutes, stirring once in between.
- Garnish with fresh coriander and serve!
