Make flowers (those on stems) are produced first, so give it time

I'm with Worthy! Courgettes plants take a little while to cotton onto the fact that they are supposed to produce fruits. Ours had unproductive flowers on for about a week, then grew some rather unappetising malformed things, which went soggy, then suddenly got into their stride and now are producing LOADS every day. Patience!

I read once that you can dip the flowers in batter and deep fry - courgette flower fritters!

It's a very common dish here, Steragram, but you are supposed to put a stuffing of ricotta and other bits and bobs inside the flower (sold in packs of six at exorbitant prices) before battering and deep frying them - it's a bit of a faff, if you ask me - the courgettes themselves are delicious and much less complicated to cook!

That makes sense Gattina, and it certainly does sound like a lot of work for not very much. But you could do it with the male flowers before the females start bearing, if you have nothing better to do!

I wish! Maybe I could get the servants to do it for me! ;o)
