Steps:
- Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook scallions, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add corn, zucchini, cumin, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Fresh Ingredients: Always opt for fresh vegetables for the best flavor and texture. Look for vibrant colors and firm zucchini, corn, and poblano peppers.
- Medium Heat: Use medium heat to sauté the vegetables. High heat can easily burn the ingredients, while low heat will take too long to cook them properly.
- Proper Chopping: Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking. Thinner strips or cubes will cook faster than larger pieces.
- Don't Overcook: Sauté the vegetables until they are tender but still retain a slight crunch. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Seasoning: Don't be afraid to season the vegetables generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. This will enhance their natural flavors.
- Cheese and Garnish: Add grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh cilantro or parsley just before serving for an extra burst of flavor and color.
