Simple Courgettes/Zucchini in Orange

"I love courgettes and we grow them up our allotment every year, but boy do we have a million of them when they're in season! Although I throw them into most things I do love them on their own so I have various ways to change them up a bit, this being the simplest..."

directions

  • Chop the courgettes any which way and brown them in a frying pan with some oil or 1 cal spray.
  • When they are browning (but not fully cooked) add the orange juice and simmer until the OJ reduces.
  • After about 4-5mins, the OJ will reduce down and thicken into a lovely orangey glaze and the courgettes should be done!
  • Serve with lashings of coarse-ground black pepper. Mmmmm!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Aloha! I'm 29 years old and from the UK. My other half calls me his 1950's housewife because I just love to bake, preserve and cook in general! After studying catering at college I decided commercial cookery wasn't for me but I still like nothing more than discovering new dishes, throwing dinner parties and so on! I work on the recruitment side of a quantity surveying consultancy about 25 miles north of London. I love my job. It's hard work but fast paced, challenging and my work day just flies by. With regards to how I rate recipes, I try and keep it fair and to the system. I do my best to give no lower than 3 stars but will do on occasion if I made something as directed and it still ended up in the bin. I've never given 1 star but on occasion I'll leave no stars if I suspect something went horribly wrong. Most recipes get rated at 3/4 stars because 5 stars is reserved for spectacular recipes that become frequent users and a family favourite. Everyone has their own rating systems and that doesn't offend me. Rate my recipes as you see fit - I know what I like and what I don't and I'm here to fill my recipe book (filling anyone elses is merely an advantage), not to win a popularity competition or become chef of the year.
