    I made this recipe yesterday. It was really simple to make, it helped me use up some courgettes from the garden and the results are brilliant!

    I made this yesterday, wanted to get rid of the giant courgettes i have growing. Made triple and still only managed to get rid of one courgette. It has come out well though, cant wait to try it in a few weeks time.

    I made the chutney on 8.8.08 and we tried it this weekend and it was lovely. Going to make some more tomorrow as I also need to use up a courgette glut.

    Debbie S asked about what to do with marrow's.I scoop out the soft middle with a spoon.Then I dry fry some minced steak.I then add a small tin,or 4 tablespoons of tomatoe puree+1 teaspoon of sugar+1 large tin tomatoe's+1 large onion+a few mushroom's.I then add either chilli powder or dried crushed De Arbol chilli's(only add a little at a time to taste,as these are very hot).I then spoon this mix into the scooped out marrow's then bake in the oven on a baking tray covered with tinfoil at 180degree's for about 45minute's,or until marrow is cooked.You could also swap the chilli for curry powder,for a change.Hope you find this helpful
