Ingredients

  • 8-10 courgette flowers

  • Stuffing
  • 350g Cretan mizithra or fresh goat’s curd

  • 300g courgette, grated

  • 6 fillets cured anchovies, chopped

  • 50g sun dried tomatoes, chopped finely

  • a good handful fresh mint leaves, chopped

Directions

  • Place all the ingredients for the stuffing in a bowl and mix well. Using a teaspoon, carefully stuff the courgette flowers and use the petals to seal the stuffing.
  • Place in a small baking tray – ideally one that just fits them – and drizzle with some olive oil and a splash of water. Cover with baking paper and place in the oven at 180C for 20-25mins. Remove the paper and cook for another few minutes until golden on the surface.

Notes

  • Best eaten warm.
