Courgettes are most versatile and with delicate flavour, adapt to wide range of recipes from bread, fritters, creamy lasagne to grilled courgettes, but i am introducing a yummy, slightly spiced courgette masala/curry. Courgette masala or zucchini whatever you named it, is a delicious pakistani recipe, require very few ingredients. In this recipe, I also used bell peppers and believe me, it is a game-changer.
