This is a tremendously simple way to turn fresh garden vegetables into an eye-catching and colorful accompaniment to almost any meal!

Ingredients:

2 small to medium fresh zucchini squash, washed, dried, and cut into ½-inch slices
2 small to medium fresh yellow summer squash, washed, dried, and cut into ½-inch slices
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon sugar

In a medium-sized skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter or margarine. Add zucchini and yellow summer squash slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar. Saute over low heat, until squash is translucent, but not mushy, about 7 or 8 minutes. Remove from pan to a tray covered with paper toweling to absorb any excess butter or margarine. Serve in a clear bowl to show off the contrasting green and yellow colors of the squash. This is a beautiful side dish that is healthy and super easy to make! And, it is subtly sweet and tasty!!!

These are served with Betty’s Surfin’ Seafood tail Sauce or ketchup.

Note: If you do not feel comfortable with the deep frying process, please do not try this recipe. Hot oil is very dangerous.

Ingredients:

1 cup self-rising flour
1 egg, well beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
large zucchini, washed, and cut into rounds
2 inches of cooking oil in a deep fryer or pot on the stove (I used peanut oil.)

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup self-rising flour, 1 well-beaten egg, 1 cup milk, and 1/4 cup vegetable oil. Stir completely, or blend with an electric mixer. Have your zucchini rounds prepared for cooking. Heat 2 inches of oil in an electric deep fryer or a pot on the stove to somewhere between 345 degrees and 375 degrees. With tongs, dip pepper pieces in batter, allowing excess batter to drip into bowl, and then transfer to hot oil. You may fry several rounds at the same time. Fry until golden brown on both sides, and then remove with tongs or other utensil and place on paper toweling to drain. When all pieces are fried and removed, pat the upper side to remove any further excess oil. Now, place the Battered Deep-Fried Zucchini Rounds on a nice serving dish, and serve with Surfin’ Seafood tail Sauce or ketchup. Terrific!!!

Not only are they versatile, they’re also incredibly cheap. But they can also be a SNORE on the palate. So here’s a wonderful way to sass them up a bit, bit some coriander, in and mango powder.

Adapted from a recipe by Neelam Batra.

“Senegal Fast Food” by Amadou et Miriam with Manu Chao
“Reading Rainbow” by 8bit Betty
“Smokey the Bear” by Gene Autrey

You’ll need:
2lbs zucchini, yellow squash, patty pan, whatever you want or can find
1 red pepper, chopped into 1″ squares
1 tbsp coriander powder
1 tsp in
1 tsp dried mango powder (amchur)
1 tbsp minced ginger
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
Seasoned salt (to taste)

1) Top and tail the squash. If you’re using zucchini, slice into 1″ rounds. If you’re using patty-pans, cut a cross into one end of the squash, cutting about a 1/4 of the way through.

2) Warm a little olive oil in a wok over high heat. Add squash & pepper. Stir occasionally, and cook, uncovered, until some brown spots appear all over.

3) Turn heat down to medium-high. Sprinkle spice powders, ginger and salt all over the veggies. Stir. Cover and cook 2 minutes.

4) Add tomatoes. Stir and cook, covered another 2 minutes until squash is crisp-tender.

5) Sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Taste for seasoning and serve!
