Zucchetti com um toque picante: salada de abobrinha crua

Ingredientes

• 1 zucchini
• a handful of pine nuts
• juice of 1/2 lemon
• half a red chili
• 1 clove of garlic
• a handful of Parmesan
• olive oil
• salt & pepper

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   1. Grill the pine nuts in a heated frying pan until they’re nicely golden brown. Then transfer them to a plate to cool. Wash the zucchini and slice it into ribbons. Because the zucchini now looks like spaghetti it’s also called zucchetti, from zucchini (the Italian word for courgette) & spaghetti. Sounds delightfully tropical =D

   2. Remove the seeds and finely chop the chili. Finely chop the garlic as well and add it together with the chili, the lemon juice, a good glug of olive oil and salt & pepper to the zucchini. Mix everything well. If you let it sit for a little while before eating, all the flavours will soak in nicely =)Serve the zucchetti with some pine nuts and freshly grated Parmesan. Enjoy!
