A potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish is made by cooking sliced potatoes and zucchini, then topping them with Kashar. For an easy version, bake the vegetables with a little oil until tender and add grated cheese near the end so it melts without overbrowning.
A potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish can turn watery because zucchini releases moisture as it cooks. Avoid overcrowding the pan or baking dish, and let excess steam escape instead of covering it. If the zucchini is especially wet, pat the slices dry before cooking.
Yes, yellow summer squash can replace zucchini in a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. It has a similar mild flavor and cooks quickly, so cut it into pieces of similar thickness and avoid overcooking it while the potatoes soften.
Mild cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella can replace Kashar in a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. Choose a cheese that melts well; mozzarella gives a milder, stretchier topping, while cheddar has a sharper flavor. Salt the vegetables cautiously because cheese adds salt.
Either method works for a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. Baking cooks the vegetables evenly and browns the cheese, while stovetop cooking is quicker if the vegetables are thinly sliced. Use a lid on the stove until the potatoes soften, then add the cheese.
Cut the potatoes thinly or start cooking them before adding the zucchini in a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. Potatoes usually take longer to soften, while zucchini can become mushy if cooked for too long. Check that the potato slices are tender before melting the cheese on top.
Thyme, black pepper, and garlic pair well with a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. A little paprika adds warmth, while fresh parsley works as a finishing touch. Add salt toward the end, since Kashar cheese can make the finished dish salty.
A crisp salad or plain yogurt makes a good accompaniment to a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish. Both contrast with the soft, cheesy vegetables. Serve it as a main meal or as a side alongside grilled vegetables or a simple protein.
Yes, you can assemble a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish ahead and refrigerate it before baking. Add the cheese just before it goes in the oven for the best topping. Avoid preparing it too far ahead, because sliced zucchini can release liquid.
You can freeze a potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish, but the zucchini may become softer and release water after thawing. Freeze cooled portions in airtight containers and reheat them thoroughly. For the best texture, serve it fresh or refrigerate leftovers instead.

Potato, zucchini and Kashar cheese dish brings together tender potatoes and zucchini with melted Kashar, a mild Turkish cheese. It is the sort of adaptable home-cooked dish that can be made in a pan or baked until the vegetables are soft and the cheese is golden; recipes vary from kitchen to kitchen.
The potatoes make it filling, zucchini keeps the texture moist and light, and Kashar adds a savoury, stretchy finish. In Turkey it is served warm for lunch or dinner, often with a fresh salad; elsewhere, it works just as well as a simple vegetarian main or a substantial side. It provides carbohydrates from the potatoes, along with protein and calcium from the cheese. Add a crisp salad alongside for a lighter-feeling meal.
