Zubereitung
Cut the courgettes into thin slices and fry them in plenty of olive oil for a few minutes until golden brown. Do not let the oil get too hot. Wash the basil. Dab courgette slices and basil leaves dry with kitchen roll. Mix half of the courgettes with half of the basil using a hand blender until creamy.
Bring water to the boil, salt it and cook the spaghetti in it until al dente. When the pasta is almost cooked, peel the garlic, press the clove lightly and gently fry it in a large pan with a spoonful of oil. Remove the garlic and put the fried slices of courgette in the pan.
Drain the spaghetti. Save one glass of pasta water. Add the spaghetti to the courgette slices in the pan and fry for one minute. Reduce heat.
Mix the grated provolone with the puréed courgettes. Add some hot pasta water until the sauce has a creamy consistency. Season to taste with salt. Now mix the spaghetti and zucchini slices well with the sauce. Garnish with basil and serve warm.
