Creamy Courgette Pasta

This is a quick and simple pasta dish that is a great way to use up some spare courgettes.

Ingredients:

• 3 courgettes, about 500g, coarsely grated
• 3 cloves of garlic, crushed
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 225g dried spaghetti
• 150ml cremé fraiche

Method:

1. Put on a large pot of water to boil for the pasta.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large and deep frying or sauté pan.
3. Once the pasta water is boiling, add the pasta to it and let it simmer for 12 minutes.
4. While it is simmering, throw the courgette and garlic into the frying pan and stir every few minutes.
5. When the pasta only has a couple of minutes left, add the cremé fraiche to the frying pan, season well with salt and pepper and then stir it until well mixed.
6. Drain the pasta and then add it to the courgette mixture, and stir well.
7. Server immediately while the sauce is still hot.
