They can be eaten roasted, grilled, fried, stuffed (particularly when they've become marrows), pickled, conserved with ginger, or raw.
Try slicing raw courgettes thinly lengthways and drizzling with a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, honey and pepper or with a vinaigrette of balsamic vinegar and olive oil - absolutely delicious.
Beautiful photos.
