10 minutes
Zucchini pasta with yogurt sauce is a light and refreshing dish inspired by European culinary traditions. It combines the tenderness of lightly sautéed zucchini with a fragrant sauce made from natural yogurt, parsley, and garlic. Sesame oil adds subtle nutty notes to the dish, while grated Parmesan completes the composition with a rich flavor. This is an ideal option for those seeking a healthy alternative to classic pasta since zucchini is a low-calorie vegetable rich in vitamins. It is served as a light lunch or dinner and pairs wonderfully with a glass of white wine. The delicate texture of the vegetables and the aromatic sauce create a harmony of flavors, making this dish a true find for health-conscious eaters.
