Recipe Tips

To bring the calories of this supper to 400 calories, add one small (100g/3½oz) banana for dessert. You can buy ‘courgetti’ spaghetti already prepared from most supermarkets but if you have a spiralizer you can make your own – one large courgetti (about 175g/6oz) should give you around 150g/5½oz of ‘spaghetti’. If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to cut thin ribbons of courgetti, about 3mm thick, then use a sharp knife to slice the strips into long thin spaghetti-like strips. Sprinkle the ‘spaghetti’ with a little salt and place in a colander for 10 minutes to allow some of the liquid to drain. Either cook the courgetti in a microwave on high for two minutes or steam over a pan of boiling water.
