Courgette Curry

Courgette Curry

Courgette curry is a delicious and inviting curry made with courgette and a few other ingredients. This is one of the simple curries ever and the best part is it takes very little time to make and totally worth it.

What can we use instead of Courgette?

Well, there are many options to use instead of a courgette. I have had made this same curry with ridge gourd/Taurai and it tastes absolutely delicious. If you would like you can make it with Bottle gourd as well.

Basic Ingredients for Courgette Curry:

• Firstly, Courgette/Zucchini-Fresh courgette or Ridge gourd, I love using it with the skin but feel free to remove it.
• Tomato, Onions and Green Chilli
• Spices-Turmeric, Coriander,Red chilli and Garam Masala.

How to make Courgette Curry?

As this is very simple curry, all you need to do is saute onions, and tomato in oil. Add spices and cook for few minutes. Finally add the sliced courgettes and some water. Cook covered on low to medium heat until courgette is soft.

Add more or less water as per your desired consistency. Finally add fresh chopped coriander leaves.

Serving suggestions:

Serve the courgette curry with paratha, roti or rice.
