Vegetable stew with cauliflower and zucchini

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make vegetable stew with cauliflower and zucchini? Prepare the following ingredients. It is preferable to take fresh vegetables. If you use frozen vegetables, you do not need to defrost them. I use tomatoes in their own juice, chopped without skin; if you use fresh tomatoes, you can add 1 tsp to them. tomato paste for richness of taste.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place a frying pan with high sides or a saucepan on the fire, pour in vegetable oil and heat. How to choose the right pan for stewing, read the article at the link at the end of the recipe. Wash and peel onions, carrots, celery. Chop the onion and celery, grate the carrots on a coarse grater. Place the chopped vegetables in a frying pan and fry them together, stirring constantly, until the onion is transparent.

3. STEP 3

   

   Rinse the cauliflower thoroughly under running cold water. Remove the stalk and outer leaves. Cut off all the inflorescences and separate them into smaller ones. To reduce cooking time, cut off thicker stems (they can later be used to make vegetable broth). Add cabbage and green beans to the pan and simmer over low heat, covered, for 6 - 8 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Rinse the zucchini under running cold water, cut into cubes and add to the vegetables in the pan, continue to simmer under the lid for another 6 - 8 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   If you use fresh tomatoes in cooking, remove the skins from them before adding them to the vegetable stew. For the most convenient way to do this, read the tips under the recipe. Place the chopped tomatoes in the pan with the vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste, stir and continue to simmer the vegetable stew under the lid until the vegetables are ready.

6. STEP 6

   

   Serve the prepared vegetable stew with cauliflower hot. This is an independent dish or a delicious side dish that will pleasantly diversify dinner on regular and fast days. When serving the dish, you can sprinkle it with chopped fresh dill or parsley.

I enjoyed preparing a vegetable stew with cauliflower, and with even greater pleasure the whole family ate it for lunch. The only food I needed was celery. I didn’t weigh the ingredients for the stew, I took them in random quantities, so the sweetish taste of carrots and zucchini dominates in my stew. For my taste, in dishes with cauliflower, the main thing is not to overcook it, I like it to be slightly hard, so I added it to the dish last, after which I did not cook it for long, about 6-7 minutes, then the dish came under the lid. Very tasty, fresh and aromatic! I didn’t add any spices, but I could have sprinkled it with a pinch of thyme. Thank you, the recipe is great!
