Put soy sauce on some zucchini, a tip I learned from a Chinese

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: tamari

💰Cheaper: soy sauce

Tamari is gluten-free and lower in sodium.

sesame oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Olive oil is healthier with good fats.

Cut off both ends of the zucchini.

Cut zucchini in half lengthwise and then into thin strips.

Transfer zucchini to a large bowl.

Season zucchini with 1 teaspoon of salt, a pinch of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika; mix well.

Add 2 tablespoons of wheat flour to the zucchini mixture and mix again.

In a large skillet over medium to low heat, add a drizzle of olive oil.

Add the zucchini mixture to the skillet and fry until slightly wilted.

Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to the skillet; sauté everything for another 3 minutes.

Finish by adding parsley to taste and mix again.

Add sesame seeds to taste before serving.
