Method

  • Slice the courgettes and peppers using a food processor with the slicing blade. (You can also slice by hand, but I find this process much quicker).
  • Heat the oil over medium in a large pan. Add the onion with a pinch of salt and sauté until soft and translucent (around 5-6 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, taking care not to let it burn.
  • Add the peppers, courgettes and spices, stirring well to ensure everything is coated, around 2-3 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly and cover, cooking until the veggies have softened and cooked through, around 6 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and adjust for flavor. Serve with warm tortillas, Mexican Rice and black beans and top with avocado, tomatoes, hot sauce and lime.
