Prepare the courgettes
Drain the courgettes in a sieve. Cut any larger pieces into bite-sized pieces. Wash the parsley and chop the leaves.
Warm the beans
Place the drained beans in a small saucepan with the 2 tablespoons of water. Warm gently for 4–5 minutes, stirring carefully. Drain off any excess water and remove the pan from the heat.
Dress the salad
Mix the olive oil and lemon juice in a bowl. Add the warm beans, followed by the courgettes and parsley. Toss gently to keep the beans whole.
Taste and serve
Add pepper, then taste before adding salt or more lemon: the courgettes are already seasoned. Serve warm with bread.
The small details that make the difference.
A few pointers before you start.
Should I use fresh courgettes?
No. This recipe is designed for our prepared courgettes in a jar. Fresh courgettes would need different cooking and seasoning.
Can I serve it as a main course?
The quantities make four starters or two more generous portions with bread.
Good things, to start with.
Warm white beans, marinated courgettes and parsley: a simple salad to serve as a starter with bread. A little lemon adds freshness without masking the courgettes' flavour.
The La Madre Terra courgettes in oil are already prepared. We drain them and add them off the heat to preserve their texture. Extra virgin olive oil gently brings the dressing together. The 200 g refers to the size of each jar, not a guaranteed drained weight.
