Notes
- Basically, you can eat Courgetti with anything you normally eat pasta with. So you could serve these with some bolognese or tomato sauce, poached in some soup, replace the noodle in stir-fries with some other veg, baked into fritters, alongside some prawn curry, with some herb butter drizzled over them or just eaten raw in some salad. Try it yourself and see what you prefer.
