Courgetti with Feta, Chilli and Fried Garlic

Nutritious and delicious, this is a dish that will delight. I’m a real gadget girl and any technology in the kitchen that simplifies preparing and cooking food, is a winner in my eyes.

In fact one big bowl has just 36 calories!

To make the courgette linguine, I use this Spiralz vegetable spiralizer from Juiceland.

Easy to use and – most importantly – easy to clean, the spiralizer is great quality and has even been recommended by the Huffington Post and Daily Mail.

It really is an essential kitchen gadget – especially if you’re vegetarian, following a health diet or a raw food enthusiast.

It comes with 3 different blades. One for spaghetti/linguine, a second for ribbon pasta and a third for spirals. You can also spiralize all kinds of vegetables, including cucumber, carrot, sweet potato, celeriac, kohlrabi and fennel – to name just a few.

It’s so simple to operate, even my 5 year old under supervision could use it. Simply place your chosen veg into the machine, turn the handle and et voila!

Enjoy.
