PERSIAN KADOO (ZUCCHINI ) STACK WITH GARLIC YOGURT

 

This is a perfect starter! Can be eaten warm hot or even chilled.

Depending on how many you are:

one Zucchini per person

Olive oil + tbs of butter

Thick yogurt 

 One clove Garlic Raw minced

Basil or mint

Fry the Kadoo (Zucchini) until golden. Mix the thick yogurt and Garlic until well infused add salt & pepper to taste. Using a food mould/rosti square/ ring layer the cooked Kadoo (zucchini) then cover with the yogurt then add another layer and so on until full. I used basil to decorate and sprinkled a little between the layers.

Eat with flat bread pitta.
