When I was married I was semi-regularly gifted HUGE marrows by my father in law, the type where you just know the allotment owner got distracted by the latest Gardeners World episode and let them get out of hand*. (Did you know a marrow is just an overgrown courgette? I didn’t until I was 30. The things you learn with age). I almost always stuffed them with Bolognese, but to be honest the tough skin was a bit grim and the best bit about those dinners was the beef, not the marrow boat shaped recepticle.
Not wanting to repeat the horror of stuffed marrow dinners, I consulted our good friend google and found this recipe for courgettes which I used as a base. The fritters were nothing short of delicious. I’ll be seeking out more rejected marrows forthwith. The recipe is below with adaptations for using a marrow and some changes because I am incapable of following a recipe. The original is here . Oh and they’re vegan too.
