Dice the onion and sauté in olive oil along with the garlic (I use about 1/3 of a clove). Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them along with 2 pinches of sugar. Add the tomato paste and continue to sauté briefly, then deglaze with sherry and let it simmer for a while. Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste. While the sauce is reducing briefly, cut the zucchini into spaghetti strips using a julienne peeler and then fry them in a large pan with a little olive oil. Turn gently every now and then, then add the vegetable stock powder and continue to sauté, then add a good squeeze of lemon juice. This whole process takes about 5-10 minutes. After serving, sprinkle fresh basil over the zucchini. If desired, you can also top with Parmesan or cream cheese.
