This tastes pretty good and any excess can easily be frozen. There's a bit more info here.

For anyone who's sweltering in today's heat, here's another idea for using courgettes that you may not have seen before:
Courgette Halva (here, in the form of an ice cream )

Dear Colin, i should think you are a very proud Father, for having such a talented Daughter.

Thanks OH. It's amazing how children will sometime surprise you in unexpected ways and she's put a lot of work into this project.

What a fabulous and creative daughter you have Colin........she's a real credit to you.

Btw, I have a copy of U2 Dublin 1 gig coming to me if you're interested. I can do you a copy........it was a fantastic gig
