Zucchini Morkozhambu /Zucchini in Buttermilk Gravy

Yes I prepared Mor Kuzhambu with Zucchini. Today i could not find any vegetables for making a curry or sambhar in my Fridge. I had a Zucchini, which i bought to try soup with it. Finally Morkuzhambu took over the Soup and it did'nt fail to impress us. I got to have a pie of inspiration from Priya, I really wonder, how she plays on ideas with Zucchini. Zucchini Vadai, and Chocolate Bread with Zucchini are must to look for in her blog. Thanks Priya for the Award.

I use them a lot in my cooking. I did not know that you get Zucchinis in India. Looks too delicious. I made Mor kuzhambu today too.

I have zucchini coming out of my ears-- I planted too many of them. I need such great recipes-- I guess I could try it with vegan yogurt. My husband Desi loves Mor Kuzhambu.
