How To Cook

  1. Cut the courgettes into long thin slices, down their length. Drizzle them with olive oil, salt and pepper and cook on the barbecue or under a hot grill on both sides until slightly blackened and cooked through.
  2. Meanwhile heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and add the currants and pine nuts. Fry until the currants have puffed up and the pine nuts are a pale golden colour. Put the lettuce, mint and courgette strips on a plate, scatter with the pine nuts, chilli and raisins, crumble over the feta and season with a good pinch of pepper. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and the lemon juice.

This was absolutely delicious and very easy and quick to make.  I didn’t have any chillies so couldn’t put them in but I am sure it would be just as good with them.
