I think it is a real shame if you boil baby morrows. I almost always eat them raw, and actually prefer them above cucumber in a green salad. But my new best way with them is to marinate them in lemon juice and olive oil - lovely! You need to make this salad at least 2 hours in advance.
6 - 8 baby marrows, thinly sliced into ribbons (a peeler works well)
juice and zest of 1 lemon
100ml good quality olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 round of peppered feta cheese
Whisk together the lemon juice, zest and oil and season. Toss the baby marrow in the dressing and leave to marinate for at least 2 hours. Add the crumbled feta before serving.
This salad goes well with grilled chicken or fish.
Next time I make this, I am going to add some chopped green olives, I'm sure that will make it even more delicious!
