Steps:
- Slightly undercook the pasta, then drain, reserving a ladleful of cooking water. Rinse the pasta with cold water to cool. Drain again, toss in a little oil to stop it sticking together and set aside while you get the rest of the bake ready.
- Fry the courgettes in oil for about 10 mins to drive off most of the liquid; they should reduce down a lot. Add the garlic and onion to the pan, cook for 2 mins more, then season really well and add to the pasta. Stir in most of the crème fraîche and half the Parmesan with seasoning, then tip into an ovenproof dish. Dollop the rest of the crème fraîche over the top.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Whizz nearly all of the basil, remaining cheese, bread and pine nuts together to make pesto crumbs, then scatter all over the top. Finish with a few more pine nuts. Bake for 20 mins until the topping is crisp and bubbling at the edges. Serve with a few more basil leaves scattered over.

COURGETTE AND PASTA BAKE
Taken from the BBC Good Food Easy Italian booklet July 2008. I used this recipe whilst we were caravaning in the South of France with limited utensils and space and it worked wonderfully. My 3 yr old (who's recently become a fussy eater) loved it and it has quickly become a family favourite. You can alter the amounts for each ingredient to suit as the original recipe doesn't actually specify amounts and this is just how I did it. I also added some grated cheddar to the topping just because we all love cheese.

- Preheat the oven to 240°C, fan 220°C, gas mark 9. Trim the ends of the courgettes, then cut in half lengthways and slice into half-moons. Tip onto a large baking tray, toss with the oil and some seasoning. Roast near the top of the oven for 15 minutes until golden and tender. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil.
- Meanwhile, put the spinach, garlic, lemon juice, Parmesan, basil and most of the pine nuts in a food processor.
- Once the courgettes are out of the oven, add the pasta to the pan of boiling water and cook according to pack instructions. Allow the courgettes to cool for 5 minutes, then add to the other ingredients in the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles a chunky pesto. Season to taste.
- Drain the pasta then stir in the courgette pesto. Divide between four bowls, top with the reserved pine nuts and scatter with extra Parmesan.
