Amount Measure    Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2    red onions -- peeled and sliced
   1/4    cup olive oil
   1/2    pound zucchini -- trimmed and cut into matchsticks
   1/2    cup fresh herbs -- chopped
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
To serve: cooked pasta to serve 4 people
freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Gently sauce onions in oil 10-12 minutes until they are very soft. Do not burn them.

Add zucchini and herbs. Cover and cook gently another 2-3 minutes. Season to taste.

Arrange pasta on 4 plates and spoon sauce over the top. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan sauce.

Makes 4 servings.

You can vary the flavor of this simple vegetable sauce by using different herbs. I have tried fresh dill, tarragon and mint with good results. Whichever you choose, you will need to use quite a lot of it. Serve this dish following a platter of [favorites]. My favorite pasta with this is ziti.
