Zucchini is a charming ingredient with a sweet and crunchy texture. If you're tired of common recipes like zucchini pancakes or stews containing zucchini, pay attention! We have prepared a one-bowl dish called 'Spicy Zucchini Rice Bowl' topped with zucchini, onions, and a fried egg over rice.

Spicy Zucchini Rice Bowl

Instead of plain white rice, we prepared multigrain rice to slow down blood sugar rise and increase nutritional content. When cooking multigrain rice, choose about five types of grains rather than mixing too many. Domestic research shows that five-grain rice is nutritionally superior to eight- or sixteen-grain rice. Enjoy your meal!

What's different?

Zucchini that enhances the savory flavor

Zucchini has a low calorie content of 38 kcal per 100g, so even when generously added on top of rice bowls according to the recipe, it reduces the calorie burden. Zucchini is a vegetable rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. Vitamin A is highly effective in protecting eyesight, preventing aging, and preventing skin damage. When grilled to a golden brown with olive oil as per the recipe, the absorption rate of vitamin A in the body increases.

Keep your blood vessels clean! Chives

Chives are rich in sulfur-containing compounds that strengthen blood vessels. Diabetic patients have high blood sugar levels, making their blood sticky and hindering circulation. The vitamin A and vitamin C in chives help purify the thickened blood. According to the Rural Development Administration, the better the chive leaves are tender and vibrant in color, the better. When storing chives, wrapping them in plastic to prevent the leaf tips from breaking helps maintain their freshness for a longer period.

Eggs that build solid muscles

Eggs, a high-protein complete food, are rich in not only protein but also lipids, vitamins, and minerals. The key component is undoubtedly protein, with 13.46g of protein per 100g of eggs, and they are also rich in leucine, an amino acid that makes up protein. Leucine is a component that helps with muscle formation and must be obtained through food because it is not produced in the body. Muscles are a primary organ that uses blood sugar as an energy source, which helps regulate blood sugar levels.

There is a stone mill and pumpkin at home.

I think I'll try making it as a rice bowl.
