Инструкции
- Substitutions: 1/3 c. heavy cream for 5 ounces of canned evaporated lowfat milk; cheddar or possibly colby for jack.
- Approximations: 5 to 6 zucchini; 1 medium onion; 1 large or possibly 2 small tomatoes; 10-oz bag of corn, or possibly 16-oz can. It is not necessary to be so precise. It is a home cooking, seasonal cooking.
- Place diced zucchini in medium saucepan with water, season lightly with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, over medium heat till slightly tender but still crunchy, about 2 min. Set aside without draining.
- Heat oil in large skillet over high heat till warm but not quite smoking.
- Reduce heat slightly; add in garlic and onion and cook, stirring, till onion is translucent/soft, about 2 min. Stir in tomato and cook till liquid partly is evaporated, about 5 min. Stir in corn and poblanos and simmer 5 min.
- Add in undrained zucchinia and evaporated lowfat milk to corn-chili mix and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, stir in diced or possibly shredded cheese and cook till the cheese melts. Serve warm (from 4 to 6 people).
- NOTES : 'Calabaza' is Spanish for squash. Is 'calabacitas" Spanish for small squash No. Rather, it is an affectionate name for a dish made from zucchini, corn and tomatoes - three vegetables now in season.
- Say's Orlando Ramirez (Riv PE culture reporter): "No two are alike." Arizona cooks add in lots of cheese and lowfat milk. Others flavor it with cinnamon and mint. Other's add in epazote, a Mexican herb like oregano, which is hard to find stateside. "Agreement: it's a vegetable stew. Team it with warmed tortillas and ice tea for a complete meal."
