Join the courgette set: Mark Hix gets creative with the often overlooked vegetable
For naysayers they're bland, but with the right ingredients and recipes, courgettes can be delicious, says our chef
Saturday 31 August 2013
Courgettes often need some work to get the best flavour out of them. As they contain a lot of water, they don't get away with just being boiled, but something as simple as grilling or roasting certainly brings out their flavour. You can then serve them with a fresh salsa or salsa verde.
There are lots of shapes and sizes of courgettes around these days, especially on farmers' markets – I even saw them being sold at my local car boot sale. It's not unusual to find them round, and in shades of yellow and green. But h owever they look, if prepared well they make for a great dish.
I understand why some people don't like courgettes, as they can be rather bland. But dishes like ratatouille and Provençal perk up their flavour – as, I hope, do the recipes I've put together today.
Grilled courgettes with cuttlefish and capers
Serves 4
I'm still campaigning to get more people eating cuttlefish: it's much better value than squid and I find it has a better flavour and texture.
2 courgettes, cut lengthways into ½cm slices
A little vegetable or corn oil for brushing
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
200-250g cleaned weight of cuttlefish
2tbsp capers, rinsed
A handful of Greek or normal basil
For the dressing
1 red or green chilli, finely chopped
2-3tbsp olive or rapeseed oil
The juice of half a lemon
Heat a ribbed griddle pan on a medium heat, lightly brush it with oil and cook the cuttlefish for about 30-40 seconds on each side – the tentacles will take twice as long if you are using them. Remove from the griddle and transfer the cuttlefish to a plate. Cook the courgettes on the same griddle for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until tender. Meanwhile, mix all of the ingredients for the dressing and season.
To serve, shred the cuttlefish into thin strips, then toss them in a bowl with the courgettes, capers and dressing. Arrange the whole thing on serving plates and scatter over the basil.
Fried duck's egg with courgette flowers
Serves 4
Courgette flowers are at their best for picking just as the sun rises: the flowers are fully opened, making them great for deep frying. Recently in Dorset I made myself this dish, as I only have one courgette plant and I thought I should treat myself to the first flower. The crispness of the savoury-battered flower is great with a duck egg, creating a simple but luxurious breakfast offering.
4 large courgette flowers
60-70g self-raising flour
100-120ml ice cold water
20-30g finely grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable or corn oil for deep frying
4 ducks' eggs
To make the batter, slowly whisk the water into a bowl of flour until you have a smooth consistency. Add salt, pepper and the Parmesan and give it a final whisk.
Meanwhile, heat some vegetable oil to 160-180C in a deep-fat fryer or heavy-based saucepan (but no more than half full). Test the oil by dropping in a little batter. If it browns after a minute or so, then it's ready. Dip the flowers into the batter and cook them 3 or 4 at a time for a couple of minutes, until they are crisp and lightly golden. Remove the courgette flowers from the oil with a slotted spoon and put on a plate with some kitchen paper on it; lightly season with salt.
Gently fry the ducks' eggs for a couple of minutes in some vegetable oil, then place on warmed serving plates, arranged with the courgette flowers.
Shaved courgette, fennel and red onion salad
Serves 4
Freshly picked courgettes sliced into thin slivers and eaten raw may not seem the obvious way to serve this vegetable, but combined with just a few other simple ingredients it works a treat.
Julian Biggs, my right-hand man, came up with this little gem of a salad to utilise the fresh courgettes we get in to our restaurants from suppliers around the country.
2 medium courgettes
1 young head of fennel
1 medium red onion, peeled, halved and thinly sliced
For the dressing
The juice and grated zest of half a lemon
1tbsp cider vinegar
4-5tbsp extra virgin rapeseed oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, cut the courgettes lengthways as thinly as possible. Halve the fennel and remove the root. Slice the fennel as thinly as possible and mix in a bowl with the courgettes and red onion. Mix all of the ingredients for the dressing, then toss the vegetables in and season. Leave for 8-10 minutes, then serve. Be sure not to leave them much longer, or the courgettes will go soggy.
Spiced courgette fritters
Serves 4-6
These are based on onion bhajis and the spice mixture really perks up the vegetable. Serve with a chutney such as mango or lime pickle – or with a minted yogurt dip.
Vegetable or corn oil for deep frying
2-3 courgettes, shredded into matchstick-like lengths
1tsp ground cumin
1tsp black mustard seeds
½tsp ground turmeric
1tbsp chopped coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1tbsp gram (chickpea) flour
3tbsp self-raising flour (or gluten free)
Cold water to mix
Mix all of the ingredients together for the fritters and mix in enough water to make a light batter; season.
Preheat about 8cm of oil to 160-180C in a large, thick-bottomed saucepan or electric deep-fat fryer. Using a tablespoon, drop a spoonful of the mixture into the fat as a tester – when it turns nice and golden add the prepared courgettes.
Move them around in the pan with a slotted spoon for a minute or so until golden, then transfer on to some kitchen paper. If the first one or two you remove from the pan seem a little stodgy, you can add more water to adjust the consistency. Serve them immediately.

News : Got my life back, cricket is a bonus - Phil Jaques
News : Jaques retires from Australian cricket
News : Gillespie named Yorkshire coach
Players/Officials: Phil Jaques
Series/Tournaments: England Domestic Season
Yorkshire, once known for only selecting players born within the county borders, hope their attempts to bring in former Australia international Phil Jaques as a non-overseas player won't be blocked by the ECB. Jaques has chosen to turn his back on Australian cricket after being offered a two-year contract by Yorkshire, who want to take advantage of the fact he has a British passport, thanks to English parentage.
However, Martyn Moxon, Yorkshire's director of cricket, has said that ECB regulations could mean Jaques has to fill the county's one overseas player slot for the season. The 32-year-old opener, Jaques, has previously played for Yorkshire and Worcestershire as an overseas signing but, before being capped by Australia, turned out for Northamptonshire as British-qualified. It is now up to the ECB to decide whether he can make the switch back.
"We'll need agreement from the ECB to allow him to come as a non-overseas player," Moxon told the York Press. "As a British passport holder, you can come and work in England without a work permit. That's not the problem. It's the ECB regulations where we have to make sure all the boxes are ticked.
"We need clarification on whether they are happy with that. They may not allow it, but hopefully they will, given the time span between statuses."
If Jaques is allowed to return as a local player to the county he played for between 2004 and 2005, then Yorkshire will look to bring in a further recruit from abroad. "We've got a few irons in the fire," Moxon said. "But, obviously, we can't act on them until Phil's been cleared. If we get Phil's clearance, we probably would sign somebody else."
As it is, Jaques will not be available for Yorkshire's opening match of the County Championship, against Kent on April 5, because it clashes with preparations for his wedding. The 32-year-old, who made 11 Test appearances for Australia before a back injury curtailed his international career, is expected to be in the UK in time to make his first appearance against Essex two weeks later.

How to curb precarious employment
Many in the labour market do not have the same social and legal protections and security that other workers enjoy. This needs to change.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
There has been a growth in precarious work in Ontario in the past decade. This affects us all. Beyond the anxiety itself that comes with vulnerable work, many in the labour market do not have the same social and legal protections and security that other workers enjoy. This needs to change.
Precarious employment is now found in all sectors of our economy and in every occupation. According to recent reports by United Way Toronto with McMaster University and the Law Commission of Ontario, barely half of us have stable jobs with benefits and security. Perhaps most surprising, insecure jobs have crept into middle- and high-income — groups that were previously immune to this type of employment.
A shrinking manufacturing sector, advances in technology and fierce global competition have all contributed to a shifting jobs picture. These changes in the labour market are fairly well known, but the impact on our lives outside work is coming as a surprise to many.
Creeping job insecurity is taking a toll on our personal sense of well-being. It curtails family time, produces financial worries and causes many of us to delay significant life decisions. Research suggests the growth in precarious employment may be undermining our community by straining social networks, threatening charitable giving and limiting civic engagement.
So what should we do to reduce individuals' insecurity in light of the realities of today's labour market? A number of practical steps can be taken that would mitigate the negative impacts of precarious employment and reduce the vulnerability of workers.
We first must bring people together to understand the importance of the issue for the well-being of our community. It's crucial for the private sector and labour, community organizations and governments to come together to identify common ground. Recently, United Way Toronto and McMaster University took a first step in this direction. The consensus that emerged from those consultations was that precarious employment and the insecurity that goes with it were having a real impact on the health of individuals and our community and that all of us must be part of creating solutions.
We must then develop a comprehensive policy response to this growth in precarious employment that is nonetheless sensitive to the economic realities we face. The policy response will need to be multi-faceted and, ultimately, will need to modernize our social benefits to account for changes in the labour market.
A full response would need to include federal changes to the Employment Insurance system to include more workers in the Greater Toronto Region under the EI umbrella. It would ensure that federal training funds are more widely available to precarious workers who are currently shut out of most federal training programs.
But the province will need to also play a big role, given its jurisdiction over employment standards, wages and many income security programs. The upcoming Ontario Budget is an opportunity to take practical steps to help precarious workers at little to no cost.
The provincial Employment Standards Act is the basic foundation of rules to ensure that fairness in the workplace is the right of all Ontarians. The province made a number of significant changes to the Act in 2009 in response to changes in the labour market. These were important in extending protections to the growing number of workers employed by temporary agencies. Further steps to modernize the Act are now necessary.
Ontario has also begun to move forward with a key plank in its Poverty Reduction Strategy by committing additional resources to enforce employment standards. The province now needs to move forward and act on the pledge through an additional $5.5 million into dedicated proactive inspections. This would go a long way toward ensuring every worker is treated fairly.
Ontario has an opportunity to modernize its legislation to improve protection for vulnerable workers. In conjunction with social assistance reform, this could be an important step forward in ensuring that employment is truly a pathway to income security. This is a goal that all parties in the Ontario Legislature should support. And it would be an important momentum-builder for an agenda that every sector of our society has to take part in.

The reasonably experienced homeowner was installing an additional circuit. In the process, he moved the #2 feeders in order to access the connector locknut. When he pushed the feeders back toward their original location, he unknowingly dislodged the breaker. When he went to pull the cable through the connector, the breaker fully disengaged and slid back to the point where the exposed buss stabs on the type CH breaker made contact with the metal breaker retaining rail. The resulting arcing destroyed the breaker, caused enough damage to the panel to warrant replacement and landed the homeowner in the ER with facial and corneal burns. Without entering into a debate as to whether non-qualified people have any business in the panel to begin with, the proper breaker hold-down strap (as required by the NEC and the panel manufacturer when back-feeding breakers) would have prevented the entire ordeal. Of course, had the breaker been one that used enclosed slot stabs such as GE type THQL, Eaton type BR, Siemens/Murry or Square D Homeline, it probably would have been averted then too.

Keeneland is suing Bradley McDonald of New Zealand for $2,259,624 after he failed to pay for horses he purchased at the Kentucky-based company's 2003 September yearling sale. The figure includes late charges, according to Keeneland vice president Harvie Wilkinson."He defaulted, and we sued; it's a straight collection case," said Wilkinson, who described McDonald as an agent and horse owner.Since McDonald didn't buy the yearlings in his name, The Blood-Horse could not determine the exact amount spent by McDonald or the identities of the yearlings purchased. Requests to Keeneland to obtain the information weren't answered immediately.Wilkinson said Keeneland had not decided what to do with the horses, which are at a Central Kentucky farm.

The choice and the chase
Showing photos to public sparked mayhem, the capture
BOSTON -- Moments after investigators went before cameras to broadcast photos of two men in ball caps wanted for the Boston Marathon bombing, queries from viewers began pouring in -- 300,000 hits a minute, which overwhelmed the FBI's website.
It marked a key turning point in a search that, for all the intensity of its first 72 hours, had failed to locate the suspects. Experts say it instantly turned up already intense pressure on the two men to flee or almost certainly be recognized -- increasing the chances they'd make mistakes that would lead to their exposure.
The decision to ask the public for help also was something of a gamble, one investigators had to weigh carefully.
"It was a good decision to put this out to the public... and this would have been a calculated risk. But the intent would have been to get these guys to change their pattern," said Martin Reardon, who spent 21 years as an FBI agent and is now a vice-president of security consultant the Soufan Group.
Releasing the photos greatly increased the odds the two men would be recognized and turned in, even as it significantly upped the chances they would try to vanish or commit more mayhem.
After three days without being able to identify a suspect by name, investigators clearly made the decision to release the photos Thursday on the belief that, without doing so, the suspects might remain at large for weeks or months, with the chance to flee or to act again, said David Weinstein, a former federal prosecutor in Miami.
So with photos in hand, investigators made a choice deemed both necessary and prudent.
"And then the worst possible thing happens," Weinstein said. "They do actually begin their flight and then start to wreak vengeance on the whole city of Boston."
Weinstein, Reardon and other experts had differing opinions on whether investigators' decision to release the photos was worth the cost exacted by the two men: the killing of a Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer, a carjacking, the shooting of another transit police officer and a block-by-block manhunt that led officials to shut Boston and many of its surrounding suburbs.
But all agreed the photo release was pivotal in breaking open the case, because it instantly deprived suspected bombers Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, and his 19-year-old brother, Dzhokhar, of time, anonymity and options.
By late Friday, many of the details in the chain of events that led to the older brother's death and a massive hunt for the younger one were still unclear, but the pursuit had consumed the region with apprehension. The chaos of the pursuit contrasted sharply with the sweeping, methodical investigation that began almost immediately after the Monday-afternoon bombing that killed three and wounded more than 180, marked by officials' notable reluctance to disclose information.
By Thursday afternoon, the brothers had to know their options were narrowing quickly. Then the FBI released their photos to millions of viewers across the city, and around the world via newspaper, television stations and websites. The time to move was now.
"I think this developed rather quickly last night," State Police Col. Timothy Alben said late Friday. "I would wager that most of the activity that was printed in the media yesterday forced them to make decisions or take actions that ultimately revealed who they were."

U.S. retail and institutional investors pulled cash from broad commodity exchange-traded funds for a fifth straight quarter even as coffee, natural gas and hogs prices had their best run in years, data from Thomson Reuters Lipper showed on Wednesday.
Lipper, which tracks nearly 270 U.S. exchange-traded commodity funds and products worth about $240 billion, noted a net outflow of nearly $2.7 billion in the first quarter of this year.
The data contrasts with positive flows for broad commodity exchange-traded products tracked by BlackRock for the same quarter.
With the Lipper data, the outflows were largely in two commodity ETFs run by Boston-based mutual fund manager Fidelity Investments.
The outflow appears to be slowing from the $16 billion outflow in the fourth quarter of 2013. Even so, the selling reflects continued waning appetite among investors who seem fickle on whether the commodities rally will continue.
Raw materials from coffee to lean hogs, corn, wheat, soybeans, gold and natural gas all traded sharply above analysts' estimates in the first three months of this year.
The Thomson Reuters/Core Commodity CRB Index, a closely watched gauge of commodity prices, rose nearly 9 percent for its best quarter since September 2012. The index was down through most of 2013, losing 5 percent for the year, as institutional investors pulled cash from commodity markets to chase a rally in equities.
"There's certainly a disconnect between the commodity price performance and what we have in terms of ETF flows for the first quarter," said Jeff Tjornehoj, head of Lipper Americas Research at Thomson Reuters.
"The ETF investors tend to be an institution by themselves, with flows that can be very volatile, and it's hard to understand the mood or thinking there, which can change from week to week," he added.
The highest outflow for the quarter was from Lipper's group of "General Commodity Funds," which lost a net $3.3 billion.
Although there were 145 funds in this group, nearly 80 percent of the outflows, or $2.6 billion, were from two funds: Fidelity Series Commodity Strategy Fund and Fidelity Series Commodity Strategy Fund (F).
Fidelity Investments did not respond to requests for comment.
"Energy Commodity Funds" had the second-largest outflow, losing nearly $394 million. United States Oil Fund had the biggest decline in value here, losing a net $163 million.
The outflow from the energy funds also contrasted with the broader picture in U.S. energy markets during the quarter, where oil and natural gas prices rose 3 percent each.
Fund groups that had inflows included "Precious Metals Funds", which had their first positive quarter after five quarters of outflows; and "Agriculture Funds" and "Base Metals Funds", which turned around after a year of negative flows.
"Precious Metals Funds" gained $810 million, recording their first quarterly net inflow since September 2012.
SPDR Gold Shares, the world's largest bullion-backed ETF, had the single largest net inflow, taking in $660 million.
Bullion's spot price rose almost 7 percent during the first quarter, reaching a six-month high above $1,390 an ounce.
"Agriculture Funds" gained $120 million and "Base Metals Funds" $89 million.

Time: 12:25PM
The world cup is what, 5-weeks away now or so, meaning that a 23-man final squad must be named in the coming weeks.
First of all Roy Hodgson names a 30-man preliminary squad, although I think that he plans to name his 'outlined' final 23-man with the seven other players selected in the 30 already knowing that they are on standby.
In previous years it has been a 30-man squad announced with the unlucky ones axed just ahead of the tournament...
Whatever this squad will hold, and in a nutshell - injuries aside - I think that most of us would have a rough idea of what this will be, give or take, but what he has spelt out this week is that anyone looking for any late, or 'surprise' inclusions, is going to be disappointed.
Those that have been in and around the squad in the past few months, or at least in his thoughts, are the ones he will turn to when he names his squad a full month ahead of the tournament.
His squad thoughts, shared with the media this week, were: I''m not going to make decisions in the last week or two of the season, which is a notoriously bad time to judge talent.
'I don't judge players on their last-minute form. Nothing that happens in the last four games, in terms of form, is going to affect me.'
When a world cup squad is selected you often get a 'shock' or 'surprise' inclusion, or omission.
Clearly this is not going to be the case this time round but as much as form - at this stage - is not a surprise as such, I would think that one surprise name that might not have been going some 4 or 5-months ago that almost certainly will now is Raheem Sterling.
Should he not make the cut I would be surprised.
Thinking that Ashley Cole actually 'being included' would have been a surprise, this time last year if not earlier this season, would have been almost unthinkable but given his recent return to the Chelsea side and the form shown I think you could see the merits of having him in the squad now?
I always look forward to the squad announcements.
Like I say we will not see anyone included that makes you think 'really' as such I do not think, the only way we might end up thinking that is if some of the old guard that perhaps should be left behind are included with Frank Lampard probably one of those that, in my opinion, should not go.
Another name that would 'disappoint' people if included, I would guess, would be Tom Cleverley...

Great placePosted Aug 15, 2014 on Hotels.com
We booked this at last minute & thought for the reasonable price it would be basic, put of town & didn't expect much. We were so pleasantly surprised, king bed, balcony, lovely staff, probably the cleanest hotel we stayed in along the highway 1. Location is actually at the end of the main part, bus stop out front & included free parking & breakfast. Breakfast was waffles, toast, cereals, fruit, juices etc & you could take it back to your room. Only problem we had was wifi dropped out a couple of times a day other than that it was fantastic would recommend & stay again

Pleasently SurprisedPosted Jun 28, 2014 on Hotels.com
When we booked this hotel we had waited a little too long.... Our trip was fast approaching. We narrowed our choices and decided to stay here. Upon arrival we were so Pleasently surprised at our choice. We thought we had waited too long and that it would be only average at best.... Boy were we wrong! This turned out to be a great place to stay. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and well kept. Everything worked. The rooms were even a bit larger than we had expected with a seperate living room (with a hide a bed soda which came in handy). Even the complementary breakfast was nice. The kids loved the freedom of not waiting for everyone to be ready to go to breakfast. The kids loved the pool even after spending the day at the beach. We would definately stay here again even above some of the higher priced places. Thanks Hampton Inn for making our stay so enjoyable and affordable. And thanks to Hotels.com for making it easy to compare prices, ratings, amenities and making it so easy to book.

First, we heard that The Beatles: Rock Band would be released as a SingStar PS3 game with all the non-singing gameplay removed. Then Harmonix told Joystiq that it was just a potential microphone bundle for Rock Band, marketed at the SingStar-loving PAL audience.
The real bundle, as revealed by Australian retailer JB Hi-Fi, is somewhere in between, though the corrected Harmonix story was way more accurate. It's a regular copy of The Beatles: Rock Band and two SingStar mics, in a big SingStar package. JB Hi-Fi states that it will be out September 24 for $99 AUD ($86.61 US), and we have yet to see it pop up on any other retailer sites, so we don't know if it's PALexclusive or Australia exclusive, or where it'll be out. We'll check with Sony.

I think that BBC iPlayer NEEDS Flash to work. Can't you simply uninstall Flash and download it again?

Another snow storm heading this way
Updated On: Jan 01 2014 09:56:49 PM CST
More snow is expected to hit Berks County Thursday afternoon through Friday morning. PennDOT crews will be mobilizing as early as 4 a.m. Thursday morning to treat the roads in preparation for the storm. But drivers still have a headache just thinking about the snowfall.
"I am a little annoyed with it. I have to worry about getting on the road and getting there safely," said Leesport driver Lisa Rotkiske.
"We have had enough already. I am ready for spring," said Mt. Penn driver Steve Davis.
Some people do not mind driving in snow.
"My parents made sure that I learned how to drive in the snow when I was very young. So I kind of relish it, especially with four-wheel drive," said Shoemakersville driver Dan DeMarco.
Other drivers are dreading it, especially after several major accidents throughout the month of December that shut down both the Pennsylvania Turnpike and I-78 on multiple occasions.
"When you hear about that kind of thing going on you do not want to get on the road and drive," said Rotkiske.
"People do not know how to drive anymore. So whenever we get a bad snow or bad weather period, it just magnifies the fact that people do not know how to drive," said Davis.
PennDOT crews and public works crews in the city of Reading tell us they are hoping to minimize the bad road conditions. PennDOT will being treating the roads 4 a.m. in anticipation of this storm. Meanwhile, the city of Reading will have crews on standby at 11 p.m. Wednesday night. They are stocked up on salt and ready to go when the storm hits.
