Instructions

  1. Heat the butter and oil in a large pan and gently sweat the onions and garlic under a lid, stirring occasionally until softened but not coloured (about 10 minutes).
  2. Add the courgettes, basil, seasoning and stock.
  3. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until courgettes are softened.
  4. Blend soup (I use a stick blender) then add grated parmesan.
  5. Check seasoning and serve garnished with parmesan slithers, dried basil and drizzle of olive oil.
