I must admit that ever since I experimented with Korean cuisine with the Quick and Easy Korean Cooking cookbook by Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee, zucchini is always in our refrigerator now when it’s in season. I really enjoy just stir-frying the zucchini with onions and garlic as shared in this recipe. Even my 13-month old toddler enjoy this dish.
SEASONED ZUCCHINI/HOBAK NAMOOL (4 servings)

- 2 medium zucchini , thinly sliced either in rounds or semicircles
- 1 small onion , sliced

- 1 green onion , chopped
- ¼ tsp salt or more to taste
