i enjoyed this recipe- easy to follow. the rest of the family weren't huge fans, but ate it and still had seconds...
Ive never used zucchini flowers before - love the thyme oil too! Thanks for sharing this!
I have just made this, it is lovely. Substituted basella (vine spinach) and silverbeet for asparagus as it is what I had in the garden, and also added corn from one fresh cob.
