Courgettes are so versatile and, when used raw, make a lovely starter or side salad. Make sure you use very fresh courgettes and slice them as thinly as you can. Ready to use pomegranate seeds are widely available in supermarkets all year round and not only look great, but also make a nutritious addition to this
simple, delicious dish.
