I have just experimented with making courgette soup in an attempt to get through them all! Good news the experiment was successful! (Sorry, I don't do measuring and weighing, but this should get you pretty much the same results)
Ingredients (serves 4 - 6)
3 medium courgettes, diced
3 large ptotoes, diced
1 medium red onion, chopped
1 tea spoon chives
1/2 tea spoon mint
3 cloves garlic, crushed
big blob of butter!
2 chicken stock cubes
plenty of pepper
Fromage frais (to taste) (i used 2 tablespoons)
Method:
I loved it a) because it was yummy and b) because it is another way of using up those courgettes. Let me know your variations, I'm thinking a bit of orange might work in this soup or even bacon! xx gemx |

Great recipe
We had the same issue in July, but added chilli to give a little kick just threw two in with the blending.
Will try your recipe when we have our next crop
If you get stuck we also made a very tasty and popular chutney and would be happy to share the recipe with you, ginger and chilli in that so all sorts of flavours going on
