Zucchini salad is to die for

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a finger-licking zucchini salad for the winter? Prepare everything you need. Wash and dry all vegetables. Since all the ingredients will be chopped during the cooking process, you can use substandard vegetables, irregular in shape or size. This is the advantage of preparing winter preparations.

2. STEP 2

   

   Take a saucepan with a thick bottom, in which we will fry and stew vegetables for the salad. Pour vegetable oil into the pan and let it heat up.

3. STEP 3

   

   At this time, peel the onion and cut into half rings or, if the onion is large, then quarter into rings. Transfer the onion to the hot oil and sauté for about 5 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   While sautéing, add peeled and chopped garlic cloves to the onion.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel and grate the carrots using a Korean carrot grater. If you don’t have such a grater, use an ordinary coarse grater. Transfer the grated carrots to the onions.

6. STEP 6

   

   Wash the bell pepper, remove the core and seeds, cut into thin strips.

7. STEP 7

   

   Mix everything well and continue to simmer the vegetables over medium heat.

8. STEP 8

   

   Cut the tomatoes into arbitrary large cubes.

9. STEP 9

   

   Add the vegetables to the pan with the onions and carrots. Fry for another ten minutes, stirring occasionally.

10. STEP 10

    

    Zucchini, dry and cut. I like the zucchini to be felt in the salad, so I chop them coarsely. You can cut them into cubes, then the cooking time will be reduced slightly. Place the zucchini into the pan.

11. STEP 11

    

    Salt the vegetables, add sugar and ground pepper. Mix well. Continue cooking for another 20-30 minutes (based on the readiness of the zucchini).

12. STEP 12

    

    During the cooking process, make sure that the zucchini pieces do not boil and turn into porridge.

13. STEP 13

    

    Wash and chop the parsley and add to the vegetables. Stir and add vinegar. After a couple of minutes, the salad can be removed from the heat. The total preparation time for the salad is at least 40 minutes; the vegetables should be well stewed, but not fall apart.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the hot salad in prepared jars and roll up the lids. Turn the jars upside down, wrap them in a blanket or towel and leave until completely cool.
