I got over-excited at the PYO place and picked a few round courgettes..

What can I do with them?

Would I be able to chop and freeze one, a la supermarket frozen ready-chopped veg for stir fry, or will it be manky when I defrost it?

Was thinking of roasting another with something stuffed into it, maybe rice? Any suggestions?

These courgettes are yellow, spherical, about 15-20cm in diameter. I have no idea what type of courgette they are, but they looked exciting so I picked them!

I've never had them but I believe they are gorgeous. Like conventional courgettes, but slightly more flavoursome.

You can do with them whatever you would do with a "normal" courgette.

I wouldn't freeze them though.

I wouldn't freeze them but they are great for stuffing! We do them roast in the oven stuffed with minced meat.

Thanks! DP will just have to get used to the idea of a lot of courgette-based meals this week...
