    Bon appetit!

I wanted the pieces of vegetables to preserve their size as much as possible when stewing, so the zucchini and potatoes were cut quite large. Young zucchini are boiled quickly enough when stewing, and only large slicing in semicircles helps to keep them more or less whole, however, as well as potatoes.
If you use zucchini instead of ordinary zucchini, then they are a little tougher and practically do not disintegrate under the influence of temperature. If you need a more homogeneous and boiled vegetable component, then the vegetables need to be cut smaller.
Instead of tomatoes, you can use ketchup or tomato paste.
