A fresh relish with a blend of fresh veggies with a nice sweet & sour tang and very versatile as an appetizer and so much more...
Add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium/high heat; add the onions and garlic and saute for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally
Add the zucchini, corn, sun-dried tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, red chili flakes, sugar and Italian seasoning and saute for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally
Turn down the heat to medium and add the tomato paste, chopped tomatoes, golden raisin, capers and slivered almonds and saute for 8 minutes more, stirring well to break up the tomato paste and make sure everything is mixed in well, you don't want the mixture to become mushy so don't over cook, the zucchini should be just done and tender
Take off heat and let cool to room temperature and serve with toasted baguette slices, pita chips or crackers
I really like this "relish" best served the next day allowing the flavors to meld overnight.
Makes 6 cups, serves 12 as an appetizer
