About Charred courgette
Charred courgette, a simple yet flavorful dish, features zucchini seared to perfection, often seasoned with olive oil, herbs, and a touch of garlic or lemon. Popular in Mediterranean cuisine, it embodies the region's emphasis on fresh, nutrient-packed vegetables. Zucchini itself is a low-calorie, high-water-content food, rich in vitamins like C and A, potassium, and fiber, supporting hydration, digestion, and immune health. When prepared with olive oil, a source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, the dish offers added nutritional benefits. However, overuse of oil or heavy seasoning can increase calorie and sodium levels, so moderation is key. Charred courgette pairs beautifully with salads, grains, or protein dishes, making it a versatile, health-conscious addition to any meal. This vibrant dish highlights the natural sweetness of zucchini while delivering nutritional balance and robust, smoky flavors.
