Method

  • step 1

    Slice the courgettes in a food processor, using the fine disc, and pat dry on a clean tea towel. Toss the slices in a plastic bag with the flour, well seasoned. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan with the rosemary, discarding the herb when the oli is hot, and add 1⁄4 of the courgettes. Fry the courgettes in batches on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes until light golden. Drain on kitchen paper, serve hot.

Nice flavour, though would probably be more interesting with some garlic. I sprinkled with parmesan which helped. But mine were soggy, though I followed the instructions. Would have preferred crisp ones!

Great recipe to use up courgettes, I added spices to the flour (smoked paprika, cayenne pepper) and added garlic to the oil as someone here suggested. Also added finely chopped mint to serve, with sweet chilli sauce for dipping - lovely!

question

Why, under the nutrition per serving does it state 'for the fish only' when there is no fish in this recipe?

A favourite vegetable course of mine. Once you've fried severable batches and drained them on kitchen paper, sprinkle them with a white wine vinegar and finely chopped mint, then leave to chill. They're delicious as part of a summer antipasto

Tried the recipe and found it a quick way to have cougettes and added taste to what can be a plain flavour
