Ingredients

400g linguine

3 courgettes , coarsely grated

3 tbsp olive oil , plus extra to drizzle

1 garlic clove , finely chopped

zest 1 unwaxed lemon

large pinch crushed chillies

handful basil leaves , torn

Method

Cook the linguine following the pack instructions, then drain quickly so some cooking water is still clinging to the strands.

Tip back into the cooking pan with the grated courgettes, olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, chillies and most of the basil. Season generously, then use tongs to toss everything together. Scatter with remaining basil leaves and add an extra drizzle of oil, if you like.
