FIORI DI ZUCCHINE FRITTI E RIPIENI DI RICOTTADEEP-FRIED COURGETTE FLOWERS STUFFED WITH RICOTTA
Courgette flowers, sold in bunches in Italian markets in midsummer, are usually a privilege reserved for the kitchen gardener in Britain. They're a rare treat in the shops, so if you see courgette flowers for sale snap them up and cook them the same day – they don’t last long. For variety, add some fresh mint to the ricotta mixture or pop in a small cube of mozzarella.
