  • 1 medium zucchini
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

    Peel carrots; cut each end at a diagonal. In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil; add carrots. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes or until crisp-tender. Cool slightly.

    Using a vegetable peeler, peel carrots into lengthwise strips; cut each 1/2 in. wide. Stack two strips together; loosely tie into a knot. Repeat to make five more carrot knots. Set knots and remaining strips aside. Cut zucchini ends at an angle. Using the peeler, peel zucchini into thin strips; cut each 1/2 in. wide. Bring remaining water to a boil; add zucchini strips. Cook for 2 minutes or just until tender. Make six zucchini knots, following the directions for carrot knots.
