Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon mustard seed
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
4 cups grated zucchini
½ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
salt to taste
4 (10 inch) flour tortillas
4 fresh chives
½ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In a medium size wok or saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add mustard and cumin seeds. As they begin to pop, lower the heat and add the onion and ginger. Saute until onions are soft and light pink in color.
  • Add the shredded zucchini, increase the heat slightly. Stir frequently until the zucchini gets soft and well-cooked, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the chili powder, pepper, clove, cinnamon and salt.
  • Warm the tortillas and place the tortillas on a flat surface. Place 1/4 of the zucchini filling in the center of each tortilla. Roll up each tortilla and tie it closed with a chive. You can serve the wrap with a dollop of sour cream on the side, it makes for a well rounded wrap!

Tips:

  • Grate the zucchini finely: This will help it release more moisture and cook evenly. You can use a box grater or a food processor fitted with a grating blade.
  • Squeeze out the excess moisture from the zucchini: This will help prevent the tortillas from becoming soggy. You can do this by placing the grated zucchini in a colander and pressing down on it with a spoon or your hands.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the tortillas from sticking. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you can grease a regular skillet with cooking spray.
  • Cook the tortillas over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning. You should cook them for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the tortillas warm: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the skillet. You can serve them with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or cheese.

Conclusion:

Zucchini tortillas are a delicious and easy-to-make Mexican dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a great way to use up leftover zucchini, and they are also a healthier alternative to traditional flour tortillas. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious zucchini tortillas that the whole family will enjoy.
