Today we're making zoodles with blistered cherry tomatoes and basil, a simple and delicious way to enjoy courgette noodles. We combine the cherry tomatoes with garlic and fresh basil to give them that aromatic touch we love so much. You can serve them with raw courgette or give them a quick toss in the pan, whichever you fancy.
