1

Using a vegetable peeler, slice the courgettes lengthways into thin ribbons.

2

Preheat the griddle pan to a medium-high heat. Brush the ribbons lightly with olive oil and grill on the hot griddle pan for 30 seconds to a minute until charred and softened. Only cook one side so the courgette is still malleable enough to wrap without breaking. Set aside to cool slightly while you prepare the dip.

3

Zest and juice the lemon into a small bowl. Mix in the mascarpone and olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Chill until ready to serve.

4

To assemble, lay out one slice of grilled courgette on a board, place a slice of bresaola next to it and repeat two more times. Lay the breadstick and roll it up. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

5

Serve the breadsticks laid out on a platter with the mascarpone dip on the side.
