1 - I made this just once with all sorts of little changes, and it looks like it worked well.

2 - The second try was successful and good. Served it with the radish leaf curry.

2 tsps. mild oil

½ tsp cumin seeds

2 green chillies finely chopped or 1 good pinch red pepper flakes

1 Tbsp ginger, finely grated

1 Tbsp garlic, finely grated

⅛ tsp asafoetida (hing) optional

1 medium onion (6oz/170gr) finely chopped

2 medium zucchini cut into ½ inch pieces (about 20oz)

½ tsp turmeric powder

1 teaspoon coriander powder

½ tsp garam masala powder

salt to taste

Juice from 1 lemon 1 teaspoon amchur powder (dry mango powder) (OR lemon juice)

2 Tbsps coriander leaves (cilantro)

1. Heat the oil in a pan on medium heat. Add cumin seeds to toast.
2. When cumin is fragrant add the ginger and the garlic, the chillies and asafoetida. Saute for 30 seconds till the raw smell of ginger and garlic disappears.
3. Add the onion and cook until they soften.
4. Add the chopped zucchini, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix everything well.
5. Cover and cook over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, till fork tender. Stir in between. Zucchini contains 95% of water so you may not need to add extra water while cooking, but use your judgment to avoid scorching the spices.
6. Once the zucchini is cooked add the lemon juice and coriander leaves.
7. Mix well and serve with roti, paratha, or rice.
