from the outside of
each zucchini. Cut the
strips in neat slices.
Set the zucchini on
one side. Fry the
onion and garlic in
hot oil; do not allow
to brown.

2.
Add the turmeric,
zucchini slices,
chopped tomatoes,
water and
shrimp, if using.
|
3.
Put the noodles in a
pan and pour over
boiling water to
cover, let stand for a
minute and then drain.
Cut the noodles in
2-inch lengths and add
to the vegetables.
|
4. Cover with a
lid and cook in their
own steam for 2-3
minutes. Toss
everything well
together. Season with
salt to taste and
serve while still hot.
