One of the 10 or so chilli plants we have in the house - soon we are going to have a mountain of chillis to eat too (as well as courgettes). Recipes including courgettes & chillis anyone? ![]()

Wow, thank you Nick, sounds lovely! You know, I didn't expect there to be a recipe including both, it didn't seem right somehow - am very impressed!

if by 'kitchen' you mean "google search field" ;)


baked courgettes with mint & chilli 400-500g courgettes 2 cloves of garlic, finely sliced 2 red chillies, finely sliced 2 sprigs mint olive oil salt freshly ground pepper to taste Top and tail the courgettes, cut in half, then quarter lengthways. Take out the seed part and you are left with long strips and just the flesh and skin. Place the courgettes on a baking tray, skin sides on the tray, flesh facing up. Sprinkle the thinly sliced chillies, garlic and mint over courgettes and then drizzle over some olive oil. Bake on a medium heat until turning brown or cooked to your taste. Serve as a starter on their own, as a side dish to your main course, or they are great thrown over bruschetta. ;)
