If you are tired of making zucchini curry or zucchini sabzi, and looking for more ideas to cook with zucchini, here’s a delicious alternative zucchini besan sabzi. This Zucchini besan sabzi recipe is similar to my broccoli besan sabzi, offering a fantastic way to transform zucchinis into a flavorful dish quickly. My family loves it, and I make it almost every other week. To make it even healthier, you can add toasted flax seeds as a finishing touch. Zucchini vegetable contains zero fat and is high in water and fiber content. It also provides significant amounts of vitamins B6, riboflavin, folate, C, and K, as well as minerals like potassium and manganese. I also tried making this recipe by replacing besan/gram flour with almond flour to make it KETO, LOW CARB recipe. It tastes equally good. But almond flour gets cooked faster than besan, so keep an eye out not to burn the flour. For the Jain version, skip the onion and replace garlic with hing (asafoetida).

Ingredients

How to make Zucchini Besan Sabzi

Wash and cut 1 large zucchini lengthwise, and then into thin half-moon slices (around 2 cups). Take sliced zucchini in a bowl, add besan, red chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, coriander powder, amchur powder, and salt, and mix well. Note: You can replace besan with almond flour for a low-carb/keto recipe. Heat oil in a pan or Kadai, add in cumin (jeera), and let it crackle. Then add curry leaves and minced garlic and saute for another 30-40 seconds. Add onions and saute for 1 to 2 minutes, till onions turn light brown. Then add the zucchini besan mix to the pan and mix everything well. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 4-5 minutes on medium-low flame until the zucchini is tender. Once the zucchini is cooked, increase the heat and brown the zucchini slightly. Ensure the besan is cooked well. Serve zucchini chickpea flour sabzi hot with roti, rice, or it can be eaten as it is.
