Zaalouk

Zaalouk is a Moroccan cooked salad — eggplant and tomatoes slow-cooked together with garlic, cumin, paprika, and plenty of olive oil until they collapse into a thick, jammy paste. Not quite a dip, not quite a side dish. The Moroccan kitchen serves it alongside tagines, spooned onto bread, or as part of a mezze spread of small salads that open a meal. Charring the eggplant before cooking it is optional but does add a smoky note that the straight-cooked version lacks. It tastes better the next day, and keeps for four days in the fridge.

Zucchini Fritters

Grated zucchini, squeezed hard, mixed with egg, flour, parmesan, scallions, and garlic, then fried in a hot pan until crisp and golden. Zucchini is mostly water, so the entire recipe is really about getting that water out first. Do that correctly and the rest takes care of itself.
