The Zucchini Courgette or Baby marrow is a Summer squash. It has a mild flavour, slightly sweet and slightly bitter. Though it can be eaten raw, it's absolutely flavourful even when cooked and enjoyed as a delicious meal. It gets done so easily. Therefore I have preferred to fry it for a yummy Breakfast on a weekend.
Both Yellow and Green varieties are available aplenty.
These are enjoyed in Salads, Stir Frys, Casseroles etc. It can be relished in baked form too.
It's a versatile squash rich in Vitamins, Minerals and Plant compounds. High in Fiber and antioxidants, it improves digestion and reduces the risk of type 2 Diabetes. It has a low calorie count which makes it the most loved one with all those health conscious people and fitness freaks out there.

It's a perfect choice for any day. Sauteed or roasted Zucchini also is perfect. Zucchini Bread is a good one too. There are many such delightful dishes one can enjoy making with this amazing Vegetable.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
