Yes, I’m on a Zuchinni roll right now… sometimes I call them Courgette… I dunno… potato potato… SO many things have so many names… So now, depending on the DAY, I decide!!!

Now I was going to grill the ribbons of zuchinni, but then I thought, let’s be all RAW about ourselves!!! Since that is now a THING people do… let’s make the RAW lovers happy! This must be yesterday’s news though… but for me, it’s a newbie and it’s staying! The combination just fits so well, I love the sweetness of the thin ribbons of zuchinni with the tangy punch of the guac… it’s awesome! and then just to give it a tiny twist… I used dark soy sauce as a garnish…

The teachnique for forming the zuchinni ribbons is the same as in my previous post:https://anjalinachugani.com/courgette-ribbon-smoked-salmon-quinoafeta-salad/ . then you just place the guac at the bottom end and roll upwards! pretty simple… and yet, you yourself feel impressed at how they look AND taste!

Being avocado and raw veggies in general, I think these are best had straight away… You could store them in the fridge for 2-3 hours tops but they really hardly take any time to prepare.. you could prep your veggies for the guac ahead of time and then just whizz it all up…SOOOOOO easy! Summer, here we come!

  8. Once you reach the top, stand it up and continue with the rest!
