Pasta with courgette and Parmesan
William Drabble's easy courgette pasta recipe is perfect for a quick lunch or a tasty midweek meal. When fried, the grated courgette combines with the olive oil to make a subtle sauce, delightful when finished off with plenty of Parmesan shavings. If catering for a strict vegetarian, swap out the Parmesan for a vegetarian alternative.
