Spaghetti zucchini

Ingredients

small squash variety 1 PC.
medium tomato 1 PC.
garlic 2tooth
fresh or dried basil 1 branch
olive oil 1 tbsp. the spoon
balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon
salt pepper taste

Cooking method

  • Zucchini of the "Spaghetti" variety has grown in the garden. They are interesting in that their pulp during cooking breaks down into fibers, very similar to thin spaghetti pasta. To taste, these are ordinary zucchini, but they need to be cooked, unlike ordinary zucchini, only after they are fully ripe, when they turn yellow and become hard. In this case, their inner content will be as similar as possible to spaghetti. I didn't wait a bit, so the fibers are not very long, but still tasty.

zucchini "Spaghetti"
I've never heard of such a thing ...
Thank you, Natalia, and for the recipe, and for the educational work. Now, if someday such a zucchini comes across, at least I will know what to do with it.
niamka
Galina, I have not seen such zucchini on sale, but the seeds are on sale. So, only plant in the garden. Grows well, unpretentious, productive
gala10
Natalia, but I don't have a vegetable garden ... So it remains only to read about them ...
niamka
Galina, you can donate seeds to friends with a garden

I love these zucchini very much!
We cut them in half, take out the seeds and into boiling water for 30-40 minutes, depending on the size.
Then we do the gas station. Ol oil, maggi, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, slightly diluted with water.
and that's all) pour the dressing into the hot zucchini with a spoon and eat with a fork. The fibers feel good.
And it turns out low in calories, but satisfying and very tasty!
niamka
Svetlana, theoretically, any spices can be added to this dish. Zucchini, it is zucchini, its taste is neutral. And fibers, yes, it turns out unusual and interesting.

Exactly the same for me. well, maybe a little larger and when it ripens completely it will be yellow .. I will take a photo later and show what we have ... Pumpkin variety Spaghetti is written on the bags. Of the zucchini, there is only Zucchini, there are no others ...
niamka
Galina, these yellow ones also need to be cut off, I just left the dacha, cut off what I was. It tastes more like a squash than a pumpkin.
gawala
But here he is a pumpkin ...: D Pumpkins are also all different in taste. Some are juicy and sweet, others are "herbal" to taste, and so on ... But all are useful ...

I wrote something wrong: girl_red: not after six, but for dinner. I also don't eat after six.
gawala

Lisichkalal

I am beautifull
My mother raised these the year before last. They still have a herbaceous taste. They didn't plant any more.
Lisichkalal
Olya, and I don't like ordinary zucchini in any dishes, but I would eat this one every day)
I am beautifull
Lisichkalal, Svetlana, the usual ones are in great demand here. But only young ones. Those that have grown to a huge fortune will go to feed the neighbor's pigs.
