Excellent recipes, tasty as written. Good option when zucchinis are prolific and in season!

I'm always looking for a great way to cook veggi's and this recipe was delicious. Although i must admit that i added garlic and ginger at the begining. It was a hit, even my mother in law was impressed :)

This was really good. I added another 1/2 tsp of chile powder after tasting since I like hot! It did not state what type of green chile so I added 4 serranos peppers. Made for PAC Spring 2008,
