Courgette

Courgette is a mild-flavored summer squash used widely in Mediterranean, American and Korean cooking (where it's called aehobak or 애호박). It's popular fresh, grilled, sautéed, or spiralized into 'zoodles' as a low-carb noodle alternative. Nutritionally, Courgette is very low in energy and provides a refreshing amount of vitamin C (17.9mg per 100g), along with modest fiber and protein for a vegetable. Its low fat and calorie content make it easy to add volume and nutrients to meals without many extra calories. From a health perspective, Courgette is a nutrient-dense, low-calorie ingredient that supports vegetable variety in the diet and complements dishes where you want bulk and moisture with minimal calories; it also contributes vitamin C and some minerals while being naturally low in saturated fat.
