About Courgette cream

Courgette Cream is a smooth and versatile spread or sauce made primarily from blended courgettes (zucchini), olive oil, garlic, and sometimes lemon juice or herbs for added flavor. Originating from Mediterranean cuisine, it showcases the region's love for healthy, vegetable-forward dishes. Packed with nutrients, courgettes are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, potassium, and fiber, while being naturally low in calories. Olive oil, a cornerstone of Mediterranean diets, adds heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. Typically served as a dip, condiment, or pasta sauce, Courgette Cream is celebrated for its light texture and rich flavor. While it delivers numerous health benefits, its creamy consistency relies on added oil, which should be consumed in moderation for anyone watching caloric intake. Perfect for those seeking plant-based options, this dish balances nutrition and taste, making it a refreshing addition to a wholesome diet.
