Instructions: In a small bowl whisk together the sugar, the salt, the lemon juice, and the oil. Transfer the vinaigrette to a skillet, bring it to a boil, and add the courgette, stirring to coat it with the dressing. Simmer the courgette for 3 minutes, or until it is crisp-tender, stir in the mint, and let the courgette cool in the dressing. Serve the courgette at room temperature.

Serves 2.
