Method
1. Heat half the oil in a 20cm (base), heavy-based frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and ham. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until onion has softened. Add zucchini, capsicum and mushrooms. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low. Simmer for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe pan clean.
