Ingredients

800g long courgettes/zucchini (10-12)

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp butter

2 Tbsp lemon juice (optional)
1 tsp finely chopped garlic (optional)

freshly ground salt & pepper

Method

Trim the ends off the courgettes.
If preferred, peel the courgettes, but it is healthier & more appealing not to.

Julienne the courgettes (stopping at the seeds) into long thin strands by either using a julienne peeler or a box grater (lie it down with the large holes facing up and push the courgettes over the blades using long strokes).
Discard the seed part of the courgettes.

In a wok or frying pan over a medium-high heat, melt the olive oil & butter.
Gently stir-fry the noodles for 2-3 mins.
Add the lemon juice and garlic (optional) and season with salt & pepper to taste.
Serve.

Tips

* It is NOT necessary to salt & drain the courgettes of excess water before cooking.
* Other cooking options are to blanche the courgettes in hot water for 2 mins or steam them in a bamboo steamer for about 10 mins.

Serving Suggestions

Serve topped with Bolognaise Sauce, Arrabbiata Sauce or Ostrich Stroganoff.
