Preparation time: 10 minutes Totaltime: 10 minutes

You can vary with a pesto of arugula, radish tops, or even cilantro. And for a more indulgent version, add a few slivers of toasted walnuts or almonds.

Ingredients

  • 2 thin, firm zucchinis
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 tbsp pesto
  • 2 tbsp pine nuts
  • 40g Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Fleur de sel, pepper
  • Edible flowers (pansies, nasturtiums, borage, etc.) – optional

Preparation

  • Wash the zucchini thoroughly. Using a mandolin or a peeler, slice them lengthwise into very thin strips.
    Arrange them attractively on a platter or directly on plates, rolling or folding them to create volume.
    Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
    Add a few spoonfuls of pesto on top, scattering them over the top.
    Sprinkle with Parmesan shavings and lightly toasted pine nuts.
    Finish with the edible flowers for a stunning presentation. Serve chilled.
