Courgettes per kg

Courgettes, also known as zucchini, are a cornerstone of healthy Mediterranean cuisine, and our locally sourced selection is chosen for its freshness and flavour. They have a smooth, dark green skin and a crisp, pale flesh with a very mild, slightly sweet, and nutty taste that makes them incredibly adaptable. This versatility allows them to absorb the flavours of the ingredients they are cooked with, making them a fantastic addition to a huge variety of dishes. Courgettes are low in calories but rich in important nutrients, including Vitamin A, Vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, particularly in the skin. They are fantastic when sliced and grilled on a barbecue, roasted with other vegetables until tender, or spiralized into ‘zoodles’ as a healthy, low-carb alternative to pasta. In Maltese cooking, they are a key ingredient in many vegetable stews (‘minestra’) and are delicious grated into fritters or even baked into moist cakes and breads.
