    Cote D' Ivoire Cucumber and Courgette Salad is simply delicious.  The sweetness added to the vinegar along with the pepper flakes are wonderful. I am always looking for ways to use an abundance of Zucchini from my garden and will make this recipe often. I hope you enjoy it too!

      To serve do you drain off the liquid?
