Italy: Stuffed courgette/zucchini flowers

These beautiful courgette flowers can be converted into little parcels of joy by stuffing with really whatever you want.  Try:


- mix cream cheese/ricotta with a raw egg, toasted pine nuts, breadcrumbs, herbs, seasoning and maybe some other veg like roasted red peppers or aubergine.  
- Stuff a courgette flower with the mix and roast with a bit of olive oil lining the pan.  The egg will set the mixture on cooking.
-nb check inside the flower for critters! An extra unintended dose of protein?
