Wednesday vegetables: Zucchini and carrot "spaghetti"

We've done pretty well on finishing up this week's biokiste, but there were still a few zucchini remaining, so tonight those needed to go. While flipping through Kamman for ideas, I found a nice solution. I thinly sliced some zucchini and carrots lengthwise with the ceramic slicer, then cut the slices into "spaghetti" by hand. These I cooked n batches in the bamboo steamer. As each batch finished, I moved them to a pan where I had lightly browned some minced garlic in olive oil.

I'm not nearly hard core enough to do this the way Kamman suggests: holding the vegetables in my hand over the steam(!), but using the bamboo steamer and gently turning the batch with tongs worked just fine. The result was delicious. We had it as a "main course", but it would also be a very nice accompaniment.

As a side, I toasted some walnuts and added them to the Ebly-salad from last night.

And we had a green salad.
