Today I am sharing a recipe for twisting zucchini in the Georgian style. It replaces lecho with pepper and vegetable twists - delicious zucchini! Very sharp, spicy, sweet and sour - in the spirit of Eastern cuisine.
Ingredients:
- Zucchini 2 kg
- Sweet pepper 1 - 1,5 kg
- Onions 0,5 - 0,8 kg
- Garlic 1 head
- The tomato is ready (2,5 - 3 liters - depends on the amount of vegetables)
- Vinegar 9% 120-150 g
- Sugar 200 g
- Salt 2-3 tbsp. l.
Preparation:
I wash, clean and cut zucchini into medium-sized pieces. If it's zucchini, then I don't clean it: their skin is thin, tender - and even very good: the slices are denser, crispier. I cut the onion into half rings or halves of half rings. Sweet pepper - in straws.
I combine and mix all the components. I add 50 ml of vinegar, a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper. I bypass, leave to stand for 10-15 minutes.
You will need tomato juice or diluted tomato sauce for the sauce. I boil the juice (or diluted sauce) with sugar, salt, spices - black and red pepper, cloves, ground coriander, for 10-12 minutes, add oil, vinegar - and boil for another 5 minutes, stirring.
I dip the vegetable slices into the boiling sauce. It should boil - not for long, up to 5 minutes on average. The pepper slices will start to sink to the bottom, the zucchini too - this means the vegetables are ready. If overcooked, peppers and zucchini will lose their pleasant taste and crunch.
