  • Wilt the spinach in a pan with a bit of water, strain excess water by pushing the spinach through the sieve.
  • Slice the courgette with a peeler.
  • In a bowl add the ricotta, spinach and some black pepper. Mix well.
  • Place one slice of courgette on the surface and spread some of the ricotta mixture along with it, take hold of one end, and gently roll up, careful not to squeeze out the filling. Add the rolls to the sauce and bake for 10 mins. Take out and sprinkle with the mozzarella and put back in the oven for a further 15 mins or until starting to brown
