Fried zucchini is often dipped in a horseradish sauce, but that combination is not so nutritious. In the recipe presented here, they are paired to create a nutritious and tasty side dish. The horseradish is not a typical ingredient in a zucchini dish, hence the name “mishmash”.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 Tbsp horseradish root, peeled and chopped small

2 large zucchini, chopped (6 cups). Peel if you suspect chemical residues.

3/4 tsp coarse salt

1/2 tsp caraway seeds

Steps

1. In a medium sized skillet or pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.  Saute the chopped onion until softening.
2. Add the chopped horseradish and saute until the onions are browning.
   
3. Mix in the zucchini two cups at a time. Then add the salt and caraway seeds.
   
4. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to evenly brown.
5. When the zucchini is the right texture for you, remove from heat. (I like the zucchini soft, but not mushy.)
