Eggs Zucchini



Another of my newly created eggs dish with zucchini. I never cooked this dish before because this version of the eggs were more soggy and soft. But I wanted to try something different again. I think I really converted my hubby from not eating zucchini to eat zucchini because he never liked it before. Now I used it to stir-fry and even in cooking curry and he ate it all. This simple dish turned out to be surprisingly delicious. I will sure to cook it again.

Ingredients:

1 zucchini, thinly sliced like above picture
2 Tbsp. of Chinese dried shrimps, soaked until soften, drained

2 cloves of garlic, chopped

3 eggs, beaten and seasoned with salt

1 tsp. chicken stock granules

Salt to taste

Canola oil for cooking


Method:

1. In a wok, heat up the oil. When heated, add in the dried shrimps and garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, add in the zucchini. Stir-fry until the zucchini is cooked, add in beaten eggs.

2. Stir until eggs are cooked and season with salt and chicken granules. Dish out and serve.

Hi indonesia-eats, I'm good, same old, thanks for asking. Been busy watching drama and hardly visit your blog too. :P

Really Christy? Why? I haven't heard of anything bad about zucchini. But it's okaylah, it's not like we eat it every day. Don't worry about it.

My husband also not a fan of zucchini. He said its too soft so I will normally buy one or two for myself. I never cook zucchini with eggs...interesting.

You're welcome, blur mommy.

It is family first. I like this dish.

Beachlover, will go take a look at your hibachi zucchini. ;)

Thanks Tigerfish.

Gert, do you know why the zucchini in the Asian market is so much bigger than the one in the angmoh market? Like double/triple the size, so normally I only buy one.

That's great Lia. :)

Thanks Retno. Hope you like it too.
