Ingredients

Serves 4

• 2 yellow courgettes
• 200g mange tout or snow peas / sugar snap peas
• 4 new-season carrots
• 1 medium onion
• 30g butter
• 2 teaspoons olive oil

Method

1. Scrub the carrots. Trim off the leaf tops. Slice the carrots into thin sticks - julienne-style.
   
   
2. Trim the tops and bottoms of the mange tout.
   
   
3. Wash the courgettes and then slice into 1cm thick slices, on a slight diagonal.
   
   
4. Peel the onion. Cut in half and slice finely.
   
   
5. Gently heat the butter and oil together in a large frying pan (the oil stops the butter from burning and spoiling the flavour).
   
   
6. Add the carrots and the onion. Cover the pan and sauté gently for 4 minutes.
   
   
7. Then add the courgettes. Stir well. Cover and sauté for 3 minutes.
   
   
8. Add the mange tout. Stir well. Cover and sauté for a further 3 minutes.

For a healthier option, use half the fat, sauté just the onion and steam the other vegetables.
