Zucchini Trifolati: Sauteed Zucchini

Comments

It is really customary in Italy to prepare fresh, seasonal produce by simply sautéing it in a pan with a touch of olive oil, some shallots and a pinch of salt. This way of cooking embraces the natural flavors and textures of the vegetables which you never want to compromise by overcooking. This is also a really great way to prepare a wonderful, healthy meal quickly during the hot Summer when you don’t feel like turning on the oven or leaving the stovetop cooking away for hours.
