- Cut the zucchini into medium-sized cubes.
- Cut the tomato into medium-sized cubes.
- Heat the oil in the pan over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, fry the onion first and then the garlic (add it after the onion so it doesn't burn).
- Add the zucchini and a pinch of salt and fry for about 5 minutes. Keep stirring and add the tomatoes, peppers and water (the amount of water may vary, you can add more if the pot requires it).
- Add white corn of Aviles 220 gr. (you can also adjust the amount to your liking, if there are any corn kernels left, you can use Esquites with lemon and Tajín )
- Mix the ingredients together, cook for another 10 minutes, taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary.
As a side dish for vegetarians (not for vegans): créme fraiche and Queso Costeño Bajo Grande.
You can make the dish little by little in Masamor corn tortillas wrap or eat the tortillas on the side, tearing off small pieces at a time.
¡ Buen Provecho!
