Hi growster... how do you mayo a courgette?
Growster is nowhere near as adept at making these dishes as Mrs Growster, Gavin, but here goes...
Take your courgette, pass a spud-basher along one side, and then the opposite side, to create a flat and even surface on two long sides!
(Are you with me so far, I ain't Joimy Oviler' yer now...)!
(Take a quick swig at your wine glass, as this is the most important ingredient, although it has no contact with yer acshell courgette slaw...)!
Take a Julienne machine, which will cut the courgette into thin strips, and gracefully drag it lengthways along the flat surface of the vegetable, so that you end up with several thin strips of raw courgette, and four rather blooming and worrying fingers if you don't do it properly! If you don't have a Julienne machine, first, commit Hari Kari, then get a sharp knife, and cut the offending vegetable into incredibly thin, parrallel strips, about 1/8th inch by 1/16th inch. You may experience trouble if the veg has too many seeds, but the 'Growster Method' dictates that you take only the youngest, freshest vegetables available, so you're way too late if you encounter seeds of any size! In fact, I'd give up now if I were you!
(Take another quick swig at your wine glass, as this is the next most important ingredient, although it has no contact, or relevance with yer acshell courgette slaw...)!
Wander your courgette strips around in a bowl, until they are all separate, and can be viewed as individual entities in their own right, i.e. not all jumbled up like a parcel - they need to be foot-loose and fancy free, rather like I was many, many years ago...
Take another small bowl, and add a desert spoonful of yer common-or-garden salad cream to it. Also, add a two-inch squirt of garlic puree, or if you're lucky, and you had success with garlic this year, just a clove of well splunched and squonked garlic (one clove only, Mrs Conway may complain if you use more).
Chuck in a pinch of any herbs that appear at eye-level (don't forget that you're already on several tinctures after the various drinks you've consumed, so, this may be difficult, but try to hold out your hand and grab the jar closest to your shoulder, to alleviate joint pain and glass all over the floor...)!
(Take another quick swiglette at your wine glass, as this ish the mossse importantant ingredient, although, hic, it has no contact with yer acshell courgette slaw thing stuff...)!
Throw everything together (not the wine), and stir it gently together in the bowl, whistling a happy tune, and considering another gulp at the tincture glass, strategically placed within grasping distance, rather like Mrs Conway, but that's not for now is it...!
Leave it for ten minutes, while the flavours meld somewhat, then gently spoon it onto your plate, trying to keep it from being bruised as much as possible, as those lil' ol' strips can break and mush-up very easily!
And there you are!
Growsterclass done! You are there with flying colours, my friend, and I hope you enjoy this simple, peasant dish as much as I do, because I live on it during the week!
