I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

INGREDIENTS 

  • 1 large or 2 medium zucchini
  • 8 ounces mushrooms
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Halve the zucchini lengthways, then cut into 1-inch sections. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp cloth, then quarter them vertically. Halve the onion, and cut it into slices about 1/4 inch thick.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini, mushrooms, onion, and garlic, and stir-fry until the zucchini and mushrooms are just barely tender and the onion is tender-crisp (about 10 minutes).
  3. Stir in the oregano, salt to taste, and serve.
