Baby Yellow Patty Pan Squash with Chopped Tomatoes

Serves: 4

(Tamatar vaalae Chotae Patty Pan Ghiae)
Category: Squashes and Gourds, Vegan
Makes 4 to 6 servings
Here is a simple squash side dish with mild flavor (unless you decide to fire it up with more than 1 chili pepper, as I often do). I use Roma tomatoes in this recipe because they have more pulp and less juice than other varieties. Present it with a curry, pile it atop Simple Cumin Basmati Rice (see Rice) or other rice, or serve it with a side of Shredded Chicken Raita (see Yogurt Raitas and Pachadis).

   15 to 20 baby yellow patty pan squash (about 1 1/2 pounds)
   6 to 8 Roma tomatoes, (about 1 pound), coarsely chopped
   1 fresh green chili pepper, such as serrano, minced with seeds
   1 tablespoon olive oil
   1 tablespoon peeled minced fresh ginger
   1 tablespoon ground coriander
   1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
   1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
   1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro, including soft stems

1. Cut a thin slice off the stem and bottom of each squash. Then, starting at the top, make a deep cross-cut toward the bottom, stopping about 1/4-inch from the bottom. Do not cut all the way; the squash bottom should remain intact.

2. Place all the squash (without any oil) in a nonstick skillet. Cover and cook, turning occasionally, over medium-high heat until they are marked all over with browned spots, 3 to 5 minutes.

3. Add all the remaining ingredients (except cilantro), cover the skillet, and cook, stirring, until the squash is tender and most of the juices evaporate, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in the cilantro, transfer to a serving dish, and serve.

I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Organizer and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!
