2 tbsp olive oil
800g courgettes, sliced into 5mm rounds
few sprigs thyme
few basil leaves
100ml crème fraîche
50ml milk
1 tsp plain flour
75g cheddar cheese, grated

Method

Preheat the oven to Fan 180C
Put the olive oil in a large, lidded frying pan. Add the courgettes and herbs and season with salt and pepper.
Cover and cook gently for 10 minutes, stirring every so often, until the courgettes have softened slightly but are still firm.
Transfer to an oven dish.
Whisk the crème fraîche, milk and flour together in a bowl and season with salt. Pour this mixture over the courgettes.
Sprinkle over the cheese and bake in the oven for around 25 minutes.
