Courgette and Lemon Salad – from Sarah Raven’s Garden Cookbook

Courgettes are tasty eaten raw, fresh and simple.

This salad looks lovely with different coloured courgettes, golden-yellow and deep- and pale-green. It is good just as it is, or with a handful of toasted pine nuts or quartered almonds scattered over the top. It’s ideal with a rich creamy pasta sauce or risotto.

Serves 6-8
