As fast as I am cutting them off the plant, the courgettes are almost doubling in size! Well not quite that fast but it feels a bit like it, and although we don’t have too many plants, we are now eating courgette everyday!
So I thought I would share today’s recipe, have you ever thought of eating them raw, in a salad? If not, now is the time to try it, whilst courgettes are really lovely, fresh and hard.
Courgette and lemon salad….
Chop your courgettes up quite fine, put some shelled hemp seeds over them, chop some lemon balm up into it, juice a lemon onto it, and finally drizzle some walnut oil onto them.
Lovely. Or you can do what all the other allotment holders are doing, and make ratatouille with it!
