    Sounds great. I'd also fry some garlic with the onion & zuchhinni.
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    Thanks for this recipe, my allotment is about to begin the courgette glut season! Picked the first one yesterday.

    I'm not sure - marrow has such a high water content.

    But then again, I'm really not a fan of marrow so i'm not the best person to ask!!!

    Just thought I'd share this wonderful recipe my aunt makes...

    Be sure to use basmati rice as it gives a wonderful flavor. Emmenthal/gruyere will work much better than cheddar.

    800g courgette, coarsely grated
    3 onions, chopped
    1TB olive oil
    1/2 cup basmati rice (my aunt just throws in a small handful - I'm guessing this is about 1/2c)
    3 eggs, beaten
    1/3 cup grated emmenthal or gruyere (again aunt just chucks in a handful)
    9in unbaked pastry crust

    That looks delicious :T Now that it has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing thread to keep courgette recipes together.
