Zucchini And Mushrooms With Epazote Food

ITALIAN STYLE ZUCCHINI AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise and then cut into slices.
• Heat 2 Tbsp of the oil in a frying pan over medium high heat, then add the garlic and mushrooms. Sauté for about 6 to 8 minutes, sprinkle with a little salt and remove. Put the mushrooms in a plate or bowl and set aside.
• Next, add the other 2 Tbsp of the oil and the sliced zucchini. Sauté and stir frequently, for about 10 minutes.
• When the zucchini are just beginning to show tinges of brown, add the sautéed mushrooms. Keep the pan on the heat.
• Now add the diced tomatoes or puree (move the zucchini to one side and turn the heat up a little to cook the tomatoes a bit before mixing them through) and continue to sauté, turning occasionally. Add salt and pepper. Taste, and add more salt if it's a bit bland. This dish is very flavorful.
• Continue to cook for a few more minutes, then remove from heat. This makes a nice, light summer lunch, or a tasty side dish, along with some crusty bread!
