A friend of mine who emigrated to the US told me it was hard to get lamb in the US, but he thought it was because US farms mainly raised cattle.<BR/><BR/>Lady D - well, you can use different vegetables, as long as they fry in a few minutes. I use mange tout peas in spring and leeks in the winter, if that is any help.<BR/><BR/>Gabriele/Bernita - so it seems 'courgette' is very much the minority name :-)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901028520813891575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-90744979160500407972008-09-01T11:54:00.000+01:002008-09-01T11:54:00.000+01:00Called zucchini in Canada too.I love stir-fry.Called zucchini in Canada too.<BR/>I love stir-fry.Bernitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264585685253812090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19922276.post-2999558937936555722008-09-01T10:23:00.000+01:002008-09-01T10:23:00.000+01:00We call them zucchini, too.That dish looks really ...We call them zucchini, too.<BR/><BR/>That dish looks really yummy.

It's not. I may have to call on my ranching friends to get decent lamb. In the meantime, beef works. :) I love stir fry anything with peppers and zucchini.Constance Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17964121072645959593noreply@blogger.com
