ingredients

For two people with a good appetite

  • 250 g of spaghetti depending on your taste
  • 2 medium sized zucchini
  • 2 larger onions, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, diced
  • olive oil
  • 200 ml vegetable broth
  • 200 ml of wine
  • 1/2 cup cream or creme fraiche
  • Italian herbs: oregano, thyme, rosemary
  • pepper and salt

preparation

  1. In a large, coated pan, the onions and garlic in hot olive oil glassy, ​​they may also be very light brown. Put on a plate. (If they stayed with them all the time, they would be overcooked for me, but of course anyone can handle it as they like.)
  2. In the meantime, wash the courgettes thoroughly, dry them, quarter them in length and cut out the watty interior. Fry in hot olive oil, they may also be a little brownish (see photo), the roast aroma is always good! Salting and peppering.
  3. Put the spaghetti in plenty of boiling and well-salted water.
  4. Deglaze with the wine (if you do not like wine, or cook for children, leave out and increase the liquid in the vegetable broth).
  5. Add half of the vegetable stock and the creme fraiche. Season with the Italian herbs. Who has, takes fresh. I also often use oiled Italian herbs. Depending on the consistency of adding the vegetable broth, I usually need the whole amount, but depends on the quantity and consistency of the zucchini. Add the onion and garlic again. The sauce should be creamy.
  6. When the spaghetti is cooked, drain through a sieve and immediately, without waiting, put into the pan with the zucchini sauce and mix well.
  7. Serve on plates and enjoy. Good Appetite!
