1. Take a shallow pan and heat the olive oil. Add the courgettes and keep them moving around in the oil until they are well coated. Cook on a medium heat until they are just soft in the centre.

2. Add the crushed garlic and mix well, then remove from the heat and place a lid on top and allow to stand for five minutes for the flavours to develop.

3. Roll the basil leaves together and chop into strips. Remove the lid, add the basil and mix well. Allow to sit for another minute before serving.
