Here is a very simple recipie I learned back in the 8th grade. Was made to go with a mild Indian curry.
Saffron Zucchini
Ingredients:
4 medium zucchini, sliced ~1/2"
3 green onions, sliced likewise
1 small bell pepper sliced or chopped
2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter) or olive oil
1 - 2 teaspoons salt
1/2 - 1 teaspoon ground saffron
Directions:
Heat ghee/oil, add all vegetables and sautee for a minute over med - med hi heat, add seasonings and sautee a minute more, then reduce heat to med low, cover and let simmer for 10 minutes or so, till zucchini is tender.
Its simple and good, and tumeric can be used in place of the saffron (as with most other recipes). Luckily I only have to pay 2.99 per gram of saffron.
