Courgette is a vegetable; the figures here describe courgette fried in rapeseed oil. It provides fat, small amounts of carbohydrate and protein, and several vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 4.8g of fat, including 0.39g of saturated fat, alongside 15mg of vitamin C and 490mg of potassium.
Vitamin C supports normal wound healing and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Frying adds fat, so the amount of oil used affects the fat and energy content. Added salt or seasonings can also change the salt content of the finished dish.
