We all know there will probably be a glut. In fact some of us are already half way there.
What's your favourite way of using them up.
I spiralize, fry, steam, micro and grate. I even have that book 'what shall I do with all these courgettes ' or something like. Let's compile a thread with more ideas.
I expect there will be a tomato thread like this as well.

Moved this to the Kitchen Board, JJB.
I like them sliced lengthwise, dipped in seasoned flour, and shallow fried until crisp. Sprinkle with grated cheese or dip into mayonnaise.
If the chip pan is on, coat them in batter and deep fry.
There's a Greek recipe of grated courgettes,(squeezed dry), mixed with cheese and shaped into "burgers" but I can't remember the details. They're lovely.
I make Briam, slice potatoes, courgettes, tomatoes and onion put into a flat dish add oregano/basil and plenty of pepper. Then drizzle with olive oil Bake for about a hour in the oven.
You can use a tin of toms.
Nigel Slater's courgette fritters, although he does fry the grated courgette first and add a cheese (feta?) I don't. They freeze ok, bit soft!
I love Delia's oven cooked ratatouille and it freezes really well....... A taste of Summer in the depths of Winter

It does - but I bet a load of cultures came up with the same stuff when faced with yet another basket of courgettes from that friendly neighbour!!
