Lots of courgettes??

Mado

Grate them and add them to any pasta sauce.
Or grate them, and quick cook them in a hot fryingpan with a stock cube sprinkled over(just a spray of oil is enough).Add a bit of creme fraiche. You can them put the whole lot in a oven proof dish and sprinkle with cheese, or eat as is as a side dish.
YUMMY!!!!

Oh... don't boil them. At least steam or microwave them . They don't need any more water added. Best of all grill them!

How about this one?Cannelloni with ricotta cheese and courgettes (for vegetarians)

I bought the cannelloni from the supermarket and then filled it with the following
cut a big courgette in small pieces and fry them in some oil, when they cool down mix them in a bowl with ricotta cheese and then stuff the cannelloni with it.Make some tomato sauce and spread some of it on the base of teh dish you are going to cook the cannelloni in.Cover the cannelloni with this sauce as well so they don't get dry but don't put too much.Finally grate some parmesan cheese on them and bake them in the oven until they brown for about 30 mins at 180
how to stuff cannelloni:
take one cannellone and hold it in your palm vertically.Spoon the filling in the top.You need to hold it in your palm as it is easier to spoon in the filling and so that the filling doesn't fall out at the other end.Place the cannelloni in a row next to each other.cover with the sauce and bake

NIgel Slater has a good recipe for courgettes - chop them into thin rounds, and saute them very slowly in a bit of olive oil until they're a bit brown around the edges. Add the juice of a lemon and some torn basil leaves and serve. Yummy as a side dish but also as something different on a baked spud.

Cut them in to chunks, spray with olive oil and grill or roast them with some peppers, onions, and aubergine. Yummy!

You can serve that with all sorts.

or how about this one:

cut the courgette in half in long

empty some of the courgette with a spoon and mix it with some mince and breadcrumbs and small tomatoes and then fill the courgettes again and bake in the oven until they brown
oops forgot sprinkle some parmisan cheese on top before putting in the oven

Depending on the size: if small I slice them and lightly fry them in olive oil with either leek or shallots and serve as a side vegetable or make a salad by thinly slice courgettes, with lemon grated rind/juice, a garlic clove and olive oil - you pour boiling water over the sliced courgette and leave for 5 minutes them you drain and combining all the other ingrediants pour over the courgettes, season with salt and pepper and then cover and leave to cool.
If larger: you can slice them length ways and stuff them with cooked mince/or vegetables and bake them in the oven. I find them a bit bland just steamed.

Roasted mediteranian vege. Courgettes, peppers, aubergines, red onions, mushrooms - all go wel together. Sliced or 'chunks' on to a grill pan, drizzled with mix of olive oil,balsamic vinegar and honey. grill toss and grill again. yummy in a wrap -esp with natural yog.

Slice them into thick 'julienne' style, batter them with tempura batter and use them as a starter with dips. Lovely jubbly
