Marinated Courgette and Coriander Salad
"Courgettes grow like the clappers – fast. So you have to be vigilant and collect them every day or you end up with huge marrows and whilst the odd marrow is not to be despised, too many can be a problem, especially as most country people are desperate to give them away at this time of year. Courgettes harvested young and tender are perfect in this salad, based on the classic à la Grecque theme – serve it as a starter with chunks of sourdough bread or as an accompaniment to grilled chicken or fish...."
