Description
A staple of Mexican home cooking, this dish coaxes maximum flavor from a handful of honest ingredients. Zucchini cubes are finished in a quick tomato-serrano sauce until the liquid evaporates and each piece is glossed with concentrated, lightly spiced vegetable juices. Diana Kennedy presents it as everyday food — the kind a skilled home cook makes without thinking twice, but which rewards careful attention to heat and timing.
