Zucchini with Garlic, Ginger, Yogurt and Dill




How do you say "Blame it on the Dill" in Tamil? Cafe Drake doesn't really know, but we're certain we're officially obsessed with Gujarati Indian cuisine featuring copious amounts of the flowery herb. Not commonly associated with SubContinent fare, dill is popping up in all our Raj recipes of late, and this refreshing variation on stir-fried zucchini is our latest invention. Here's how to make a stunning veggie side to any of your standard entrees:

Saute 1 shallot and 2 cloves of garlic and 1 inch of chopped and peeled ginger in 1/4 cup oil. When all is brown add 4 dried red chiles and cook for 2 more minutes. Now throw in 4 thinly sliced zucchini and cook on high heat for 10 minutes. Season with salt and add 1 full bunch of chopped fresh dill. Stir in a few tablespoons of yogurt off heat and serve warm. Impeccable with any fish or poultry.
