as you can see, i had some zucchini in storage :D
i love to make pasta with vegetables and zucchini is surely one of my favorites.. it's a quite versatile vegetable and gets on well with many other ingredients.
so.. for yesterday's interpretation i used rice pasta (my fav italian rice brand makes that, it's very light, white in colour and it has a subtle flavor) putting some saffron in the boiling water so that's where the yellowish colour (and wondrous taste) come from. the zucchini are simply sauteed in olive oil, with a bit of seasoning mix (dried mushroom, parsley, garlic and onion).
this evening i decided to mince the zucchini with some fresh sweet green pepper, cooking such mixture with some milk, fresh basil and a mix of spices (saffron, lemon grass, chili, dill and fennel). the pasta i chose is normal rigatoni, that's one of the best shapes ever :D
