Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. Wrap 2 courgettes in foil and roast for 20 mins, or until a fork easily slides into the flesh. Leave to cool completely. Roughly chop the roasted courgettes, then tip into a food processor, along with 1 small garlic clove, 1 tbsp tahini, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1 tbsp Greek yogurt and a small handful of chopped mint leaves.
