How to Make Sausage and Zucchini Stir-Fry

Sausage and zucchini stir-fry is a quick, delicious dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to whip it up in under 20 minutes.

Ingredients:

- 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

- 200g sausage (smoked or spicy, sliced diagonally)

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tsp oyster sauce (optional)

- 1/2 tsp sugar

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 2 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions:

1. Prep the ingredients: Wash and slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick half-moons. Slice the sausage into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.

2. Cook the sausage: Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.

3. Sauté the zucchini: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Toss in the zucchini and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Combine and season: Return the sausage to the pan. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry for 1 minute until everything is well-coated and heated through.

Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles. This dish balances savory sausage with fresh, mild zucchini, making it a crowd-pleaser. Enjoy your homemade stir-fry!
