Garden mullets
| 1. | In fillings, you can put whatever you want and have, so adjust to taste. |
| 2. | Knead everything together, mixing well until it becomes soft but firm. If it is too stiff, add a few drops of milk; if too loose, a pinch of flour. |
| 3. | Preferably with a pastry syringe, gently fill the courgette flowers, washed and stripped of stamens and tips, filling them two-thirds full, then closing them like a candy wrapper. |
| 4. | Then place them to cook in a pan where you have made a light sauce of fresh tomato, garlic and basil. Cook over low heat for about 12/15 minutes, and the mullets will be ready. |
| 5. | If desired, some desalted anchovies can be melted into the sauce to increase the illusion. |
