ReplyDeleteHi Veronica
ReplyDeleteI love dishes like this....so homey and comforting dish. In fact I feel so satisfying after eating this.
Yum! This is pretty much like a dish my grandma used to cook using a gourd (can't remember the proper name of that vegetable). I ought to try this zucchini version.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours in your stir fry!
ReplyDeletei agree with Mel... this is such a homey dish!!! eat with "ber" (porridge) ... and sleep.... that's what life's about
ReplyDeleteHi Veronica, the zuchini must be very crunchy. Always thought of it eating it raw. Thanks for sharing the idea of stir frying it.
ReplyDeleteNice stir-fry with zucchini...simple and so colorful!
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying your week Veronica :D
Love how colorful and delicious this stir fry is! It's cooked to perfection (I sometimes overcook my veggies when I stir fry..). Looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis dish is homegrown! My mum used to cook this but she used another type of 'kua'/gourd. We call it 'Jit Kua', which is a bit hairy on the skin.
ReplyDeleteZucchini is so so expensive over here. I think I have only tried it once with quick bread. haha.... Of coz, the Chinese over here might cook this with cheaper resources. However, I think zucchini tastes crunchier. Isn't it?
ReplyDeleteHope you're going to have a great week ahead dear.
Blessings, Kristy
