Cooking Steps
- In a large frying pan, heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add 3 cups of diced fresh zucchini and sauté for 5–7 minutes until golden and caramelized.
- Transfer the zucchini to a sieve to drain excess moisture and allow it to cool completely.
- Place the cooled zucchini in a mixing bowl and roughly mash it with a fork until chunky.
- Add 3 tablespoons of tahini, 1 cup of Greek-style yogurt, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon of dried mint, and the juice of half a lemon to the mashed zucchini. Mix until well combined.
- Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well.
- Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with more olive oil, sprinkle with extra dried mint, and drizzle with pomegranate molasses if desired.

Notes
Let the zucchini cool completely before mixing to maintain creamy texture. Adjust the salt and lemon juice as needed for flavor balance.
