I had the most delicious dinner at a restaurant a few weeks ago -and had fettucini with zucchini sauce. It was scrumptious! I would like to try to make it, but all the recipes I find use alot of cream or cheese. I am wondering is anyone has a good low fat recipe for this. The one I had at the restaurant did not taste heavy or creamy. (I will ask the chef next time I am there, but they aren't close by.)
Maybe... Zucchini Pasta Sauce
Ingredients:
2 zucchini
3 cloves garlic
1 small chilli pepper
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
Cut off zucchini tips; wash zucchinis thoroughly. Grate them finely. Peel and crush garlic cloves. Chop chilli finely. Heat oil; fry garlic for about 3 min. Add zucchini and chilli, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Then mix with cooked pasta. Serves 3-4 people.
OR...
RAW BEANLESS ZUCCHINI SAUCE
Ingredients:
3 zucchini
6 tbs lemon juice
4 cloves garlic
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp tumeric
2 pinches cayenne pepper
1 to 2 tbs olive oil
fresh parsley as garnish
Directions:
Place all ingredients into a blender/food processor and blend until smooth. Drizzle with the olive oil as the ingredients mix and garnish with parsley.
If you would rather cook the zucchini, simply roast them before blending...
Thanks! I'll try those - sounds good!
