I am delighted to report that we have so many zucchini that we are eating them at every meal and so are Molly and Sheila and Poppy and even Manu. Though John: not so much – he is already ‘over’ them. Even the dogs have grated zucchini ( and egg) mixed into their raw meat feeds.
The one trade off with eating from your own garden is that you eat a lot of what is growing well. So, what is your favorite recipe for zucchini or courgette as we call them at home in New Zealand?
The cows are all locked into smaller pastures so the big pastures can grow for a few weeks now that it has started to rain again. Otherwise they nibble those new shoots straight off before they get any traction.
So, go ahead. the abridged version of your favourite recipes for zuc’s!
If it is a long recipe maybe you can post it on your own site and link it back to me!
Come on. I am all ears.
My favourite is to grate the zuchinni into a tea towel lined colander, salt slightly and leave to drain then wring out the last of the moisture. Add 2 eggs, 1 tablespoon of flour, finely chopped onion, some feta cheese, a little hot pepper and fresh herbs. Pepper and salt. I cook these as patties in hot butter and live off them all day. They are just as good cold as they are hot!
I hope you are well and having a great day.

It was so dry that all my zucchini plants died (unbelievable, I know) but I have been accepting them from a friend. You can do a slaw with them–very thinly sliced or matchsticks, then marinate in your favorite vinaigrette for 2-4 hours before eating. I also cube and put on skewers with peppers and onions and mushrooms , brush with olive oil and grill on the barbecue.
This lounge was amazing. So many good ideas.
Great photos Celi … I’ll have to hunt down the zucchini recipe 🙂
We use it as pasta – can be cut in planks to make lasagne, or use a spiraliser to make ‘noodles’ for spaghetti and meatballs.
Oh yes! Lasagne – I never thought of that!!
