Vegetarian dishes are always easy to make ,filling and good for health.When we are very busy attending so many other activities,we may not get time to do grocery in time.
One day in such a situation,I had only 3 or 4 zucchinis left in the fridge.My grand children were very hungry.
Just for a change,I cut the zucchinis and made a kootu.
It turned out well and the children as well as the adults relished it.
I wish you also try it and give me comments.
