A simple zucchini dish
French markets (marches) are defined by seasonality and produced by small regional farmers where you will get fresh courgettes (or known here by their Italian name - zucchini) picked that morning right through to the freshest of fresh goats cheese ready to just melt in your mouth.
This is probably the thing I most adore when travelling to France, although what makes me happier is that it's happening more and more here in Australia.
I personally am delighted in the discovery of the CERES veggie box that now gets delivered to my door each week. Filled to the brim with locally grown, organic and seasonal produce, only just picked....the aroma on opening said box is something to behold.
These zucchini/courgettes arrived this week......
These braised zucchini's are delicate in flavour and soft in texture. The lemon adds a burst of freshness which works perfectly with fish or added to your rice dishes.
