    About Zucchini Paal Kootu Recipe

    Zucchini also known as courgette, is a type of summer squash in the Cucurbitaceae family that is grown for its edible fruits. Zucchinis are widely available in supermarkets and home gardens, and the young fruits are cooked as a vegetable. The flowers are also edible and can be fried. While zucchini is commonly thought of and used as a
    vegetable, it is actually a fruit. It is harvested and eaten while still immature as a summer squash variety. This, along with its soft rind, distinguishes it from other types of squash.

    Paal Kootu is a traditional South Indian stew made with milk, coconut paste, and vegetables (preferably Yellow Pumpkin, Ridge Gourd or Snake Gourd).

    Ingredients for Zucchini Paal Kootu Recipe 

    Zucchini 

    Zucchini has a mild flavour that is slightly sweet and slightly bitter, and it has a rich texture. When zucchini is cooked, its sweetness becomes more apparent. Although zucchini is tender to bite into even raw, cooking softens it.

    Coconut 

    Coconut meat is delicious and slightly sweet, and it can be eaten raw or dried. It is used to make a variety of products, including coconut milk, cream, and oil.

    Dry Red Chillies 

    Red chilies were introduced to India by Portuguese traders from Mexico. India is now the world leader in the cultivation of dry red chilies. Red chilies are more commonly consumed in hotter regions of India, such as Rajasthan, because they help to keep the blood clean and thin.
