Fresh Marinaded Zucchini

Internet


List of Ingredients




2-3 cups frech diced zuke
1 sweet onion sliced thin
1 tomato diced
1 cup (or less to taste) malt vinegar
1/2 cup water
10-12 oz. root beer
1/8tsp. oriental 5 spice
1 good pinch coriander
lemon pepper
salt


Recipe



Combine onion , zukes, & tomato in bowl and salt to taste. If onion is "hot" soak in ice water for 1 hour, as it must not overpower the subtle flavor of the zucchini
Add other ingredients and toss carefully.
Cover and marinade in frig for 1 hr. to overnight.

This has a good sweet/pungent flavor and contrasts well with the subtle zucchini flavor. The onion and tomato are "icing on the cake".
Serves well alone or on a bed of fresh greens or (i liked this) over a mound of cottage cheese. Really refreshing on a hot day and a great lead-in to barbeque.
