Put some Olive oil in the pan and place in it the peeled garlic Clevey. Heat the oil on a low flame. By now, the water in the pan would have boiled, in which pour some pasta and boil till they soften. In the pan, pour the courgettes, and stir, keeping the fire low.

# At this point, grate some parmesan cheese.
