I'm trying something a little different this year....globe shaped courgettes in a variety pack of seed...so different colours, some with spots and stripes etc. Looking good so far!

yes, the pots are large...but the courgettes will be quite small. I have some baby plants outdoors too...we'll see if they produce any fruit. Never had much success with outdoor courgettes.

we get a lot of these here in India these days but no one is really sure what to do with them...

The Italians make a superb dish of courgettes and cheese...superb! I'm guessing...but they would be nice in a curry....they are quite similar in taste to ladies' fingers maybe? The only thing with courgettes is they mustn't be overlooked or they are mush. I like them dry stir-fried with mushrooms and a sprinkle of black pepper. And raw in salads too!
Any other courgette recipes friends?

Oh..and I had some for dinner last night with prawns and pasta and red chilli pepper. It was funny because OH picked them all out...he doesn't like them!

I just had my first two mini courgettes in a salad for lunch! Really yummy. Courgettes are so much better when picked young....a totally different thing to a supermarket courgette!

Yes use them in curry Karen, diced quite small, and added later.....love the dark green....it's a tuna fish curry....sounds weird but sooooo tasty!
