Whats the difference between a cucumber and a courgette?!
Answers: I've always wondered, i like cucumber but i've never had a courgette. =]]
a courgette is like a small marrow, not at all like a cucumber in texture or taste.
try one.......
wash the courgette in cold water
cut off the top and tail and throw away
chop up into slices about 5 mm wide
fry in olive oil with 1/2 a small onion (or a little garlic, if you prefer)
then add a tin of chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10 mins
serve with pasta (tortellini, cappelletti or ravioli - NOT the tinned stuff)
you get 1 extra orgasm with a courgette lol
well they are spelt differently to start with lol
ABOUT 5 INCHES
Ones a cucumber the other is a courgette
Ever have zucchini? A courgette is what we call zucchini in the USA. They look a lot like cucumbers, but taste completely different.
zucchini (courgette) is a squash.... the cuke is / maybe from the watermelon family.
courgette tastes similar to a marrow
