Ingredients
1 marrow.1 tbsp olive oil1 tbsp balsamic vinegarswiss chard - large bunch, chopped200g baby plum tomates, sliced2 small onions (I used one red, one white)2 cloves garlicItalian herbs, salt and pepper to taste1 pack low-fat mozzerella cheese.
Finely chop your onion and garlic and fry them in the oil until softenened. Add the tomatoes, italian herbs and allow them to soften on a low to moderate heat for about 10 minutes. Then add the swiss chard and balsamic vinegar and allow it to cook down for a little bit.
Slice the marrow into rings then remove the soft central flesh. I cut them about 3 - 4 inches because of the height of my dish. Place in the baking dish.
Add the basil to the filling and salt and pepper to taste. Fill the marrow rings then top with a thin slice of mozzerella. Bake in a moderate oven for about 20-30 minutes or until the marrow is cooked.
Serves two as a main dish, four as a side.

Thank you for reminding me of this recipe. I haven't used it since my children (now men) were young. I have an allotment and used to make this with savory (lots of pepper) ground mince added. I was surprised how enthusiastic my boys were about it. Works with marrows and overgrown courgettes. - 9/3/10
