1. Trim zucchini and grate them coarsley. Put them in a bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt. Toss to mix and set aside for half an hour. 2. Drain zucchini and press out as much liquid as you can. Separate the shreds so you do not have lumps. 3. Peel the onion, cut in half lenghtwise, and then cut into fine, half-moon-shaped slices. 4. Put yogurt in bowl. Beat it lightly with a fork or whisk until smooth and creamy. 5. Heat oil in a 8-in/20-cm frying pan over a medium flame. When hot, put in the mustard seeds. As soon as the mustard seeds begin to pop (just a matter of seconds), put in the onion. Stir and fry for about 2 minutes or until slices are translucent. Add the zucchini. Stir and fry for another 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and let zucchini cool slightly. When cooled, fold it into the yogurt. Add the remaining 1/4 tsp salt, pepper and cayenne. 6. If you wish the to eat the dish cold, cover and refrigerate it. 7. If you wish to eat it warm, put the yogurt-zucchini combination in a double boiler over a low flame. Then heat, stirring in one direction, until warm. Do not let it boil. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
