  5. Add the courgette. Stir and fry for another 2 minutes. turn off the heat and let the courgette cool slightly. When cooled, fold it into the yogurt. Add the remaining 1/4 tsp salt, pepper and cayenne.
  6. If you wish to eat the dish cold, cover and refrigerate it. If you wish to eat it warm, put the mixture in a double boiler over a low heat. Then stir in one direction until warm - do not allow to boil.
