Zucchini Curry

Zucchini curry is a savory dish made with zucchini, curry powder, and other spices. It is a popular side dish or main course in Indian cuisine. This dish is usually cooked in a tomato-based sauce, with onion and garlic for added flavor. Other vegetables, such as potatoes, cauliflower, and peas can also be added. The spiciness of the dish can be adjusted depending on the type of curry powder used. Zucchini curry is usually served with basmati or jasmine rice, naan or chapati, or chutney. It is a great way to enjoy the many health benefits of zucchini, as it is high in fiber, low in calories, and rich in vitamins and minerals.
