Introduction
This summery dish, suggested by The Roasting Tin‘s lovely editor, Rowan, is as perfect for picnic antipasti as it is hot out of the oven. Lightly roasted feta is a revelation, and brings the flavours of the dish together in pleasing savouriness. This works beautifully with a side of hot buttered linguine.

| 2 | courgettes, thinly sliced |
