Basil Pesto, Vegetable Spice

You will need

350 g – 400 g punnet courgettes, coarsely grated
olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
Ina Paarman’s Vegetable Spice
2 cloves garlic, cut into fine slivers (optional)
1 T (15 ml) Ina Paarman’s Basil Pesto

Method

Sauté the onion, pre-seasoned with Vegetable Spice, very slowly in the olive oil under a blanket of baking paper. Add the garlic once onions are soft and aromatic. This can be done in advance.

Before serving: turn up the heat, add the grated courgettes and briefly stir-fry until crisp-tender. Add Basil Pesto and taste for seasoning.
