Yeah, I know this doesn't even count as a post. Short post today. And an unconventional one which I hope will convince huliehulie to post her recipes up because she's an awesome cook. I woke up one morning to find this little monster sitting in the backyard. Quite literally, it double it's size in 2 days. And people said gardening was hard... Haha no, I won't take credit for this one. It's my brother who planted this. He's quite the horticulturalist. His school is a farm you see, which he never fails to remind me; "Is your school a farm, huh?", "Is your school a farm, huh?", "Is your uni a farm, huh?". It's currently sitting at 38 centremetres long with an approximate 9 centremetre diametre and it's presumably still growing. And nothing tastes like homegrown.
To me zucchinis (or courgettes as British like to call them) are quite flavourless, but it's got a lovely texture and it lends itself to being able to be cooked in a variety of ways: grilled, pan-fried, shallow fried, steamed, roasted and you can jazz it up with flavours like cheeses, tomatoes, a good olive oil, garlic and especially chilli. Their flowers are really nice stuffed with cheeses and then deep-fried. I hope this has inspired the little green thumb in you so give it a try.
