Dice the zucchini, drain the chickpeas, and bring the yogurt to room temperature.
Saute the onion in oil for 5 minutes, add the zucchini, and cook for 6 minutes.
Add the chickpeas and a little hot water and cook over low heat for 10 minutes.
Whisk the yogurt with garlic and drizzle it over the dish once the first heat has passed.
Heat red pepper flakes in butter for 1 minute and pour over the borani.
Do not add yogurt to the boiling dish; combine on the serving plate so it does not curdle.
💡 Tip: Leave the zucchini slightly firm for a livelier texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with garlic yogurt and mint.
