Serves 4

3/4 stick (6 Tbsp) 75 g butter

1 lb (450 g) courgette (zucchini)s, trimmed and cut into diagonal slices

1. Heat the butter in a large pan and when hot add the courgettes. Cook over a high heat until well browned, moving them round in the pan. Reduce heat and cook for a further 2 minutes. It is best if they retain a little crispness.
