"Potatoes"

Annoyed of not being allowed to eat potatoes with your meals?
I know how we love our potatoes so I will give you this suggestion.

You can use courgette, swede or green pumpkin instead of potatoes and get something similar and maybe even more tasty.

Ingredients:
2 Courgettes or 1 big swede or 1 green pumpkin (the last one it is difficult to find)
Chorizo or ham
1 onion
1 garlic clove
Passata or fresh tomatoes
Olive oil
Salt

Preparation:
Boil the vegetable you chose with salt until it gets almost cooked.
In a Wok, add olive oil, onion and the garlic clove (cut all in tiny bits) and let it cook for 2mins. Add the passata/tomatoes and let it cook for more 5mins.

Add the chosen vegetable, the chorizo and Salt and let it cook slowly so the vegetable with absorve the flavour of the sauce.

And it's done. Enjoy and tell me what you think.

It is also good if you mash them in the end.
