corgette.................LOL ;D
They have took over the kitchen......come and rescue me :o :o :o
For the first time this year mine have been sparse,but don't worry we haven't gone without lottie friends have been stuffin' 'em in our pockets ;)
I have done a bit of experimenting with overgrown courgettes. First peel them and cut them in chunks. Put them in a steamer until just the outer bit is soft. They should have lost most of their water, and then put them in an ovenproof dish cover with either a bought cheese sauce or your own recipe. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese ( not the awful dried variety) bake in the oven until browned on top, about half and hour at 200c (not sure of gas equivalent) It is nicer than cauliflower cheese but unfortunately it will not freeze as it just goes to mush. The fresh courgettes will last for ages in the salad compartment of your fridge.
For any spares Italian style courgette and parmesan soup from the BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/italianstylezucchini_9833) is worth a go if you haven't already tried it.
We keep overgrown courgettes on the windowsill in the spare room along with the squash.We just treat them like a marrow

Sorry to hear that... I love cheese but tend to eat far less since being told my cholesterol levels are way too high. (Wish I'd never asked!!!) ::)
I'm with Saddad on this one, a downer indeed :'(.
I havent had many courgettes this year and my pumpkins didnt pollinate. sad year for that kind of thing. JEannine's squashes are the only thing that have done well
