Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Wash the zucchini under running water, cut it in half lengthwise and chop into not too thin half rings. If you chop the zucchini too much, then due to its tender pulp, it will simply melt into the finished dish. We will immediately add all the vegetables to the multicooker bowl. There is no need to grease the bottom of the bowl with oil first, since it is usually non-stick.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the carrots. If it is very dirty, scrub the peel with a brush. Use a vegetable peeler to trim off the peel. Chop the carrots into half rings, thinner than the zucchini. This is necessary because carrots themselves are much tougher than zucchini and take longer to cook. We will equalize this time by simply cutting the carrots thinner.

Step 3

Step 3
Wash the sweet bell pepper, remove the stem and seeds and cut into medium cubes. You can use bell peppers of any color: yellow, red or green. And also Ramiro pepper. Bell pepper is responsible for the sweetness and visual appeal of the dish. In addition, it is incredibly beneficial for digestion and the body as a whole.

Step 4

Step 4
Wash the cherry tomatoes and cut them into halves. If you want to chop the tomatoes more, then most likely they will not be noticeable in the finished dish. Cherry tomatoes can be replaced with regular tomatoes if they are in season for you. Otherwise, choose plum cherry tomatoes. They are generally sweet and tasty all year round.

Step 5

Step 5
Rinse fresh herbs under running water and shake lightly. Iʼll add a nice tight bunch of cottage greens. This is parsley and dill. Iʼll also add lovage. Itʼs quite specific, so itʼs optional. Herbs will make the taste of the dish unique. Salt the dish to taste and add a teaspoon of tomato paste. Since the vegetables themselves are juicy, there is no need to add water to this stew. Simmer the stew using the “Stew” or “Simmer” program for 15 minutes.
