Golden Zucchini - Balti

Cuisine: Indian
Type: Vegetables
Courses: Vegetarian
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1   Yellow zucchini
1   Onion
1   Yellow or orange pepper
2   Red or yellow tomatoes (small)
1   Garlic
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlTurmeric
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlChopped chiles - (dried)
1 teaspoon 5mlCayenne chile (small)
1 cup 237mlBalti sauce
1/2 cup 118mlWhite wine - or
1/2 cup 118mlVegetable stock
  Vegetable oil for frying

Recipe Instructions

Scrub all vegetables and dry. Heat oil in karahi. Saute onions until transparent: add turmeric, garlic and chopped dried chiles, and saute for another minute (be careful not to let the garlic scorch), then remove onions and garlic and set aside. Reheat oil slightly. Slice half the zucchini into rounds: chop the rest into "matchsticks". Slice and roughly chop the tomatoes: seed and chop the peppers and chile.

Quickly stir-fry all these vegetables for about two minutes or until partially cooked: add the onions and garlic again, then the Balti sauce. Cook for about 5-10 more minutes until you like the consistency. If you like, add white wine or vegetable stock and cook a little longer until sauce reduces thick again. Serve in karahi with naan bread, or (if you're feeling pedestrian) on a plate, with rice.
