Eat them plain or with herbs as a vegetable side dish with whatever your main course is.
1) Microwave method:
Thickly slice your courgettes (if very large cut them in half lengthways before slicing), chuck them into a microwavable dish, sprinkle with mixed herbs, cover and microwave for 4/5 minutes until tender (I usually check them after 3 minutes and give them a shake to move them around).
2) Stovetop method:
Slice courgettes as above. Heat up some olive oil in a frying pan and lay out the courgette slices flat in the frying pan. Sprinkle with mixed herbs. Fry for a few minutes until golden. Turn each slice over with tongs and fry that side until golden.
I prefer the stovetop method but it can be a little greasy and definitely makes more washing up so these days tend to go for the microwave method. :-)
