- Slice courgette into thin strands using a vegetable peeler or spiraliser; toss with salt until combined. Drain on kitchen roll until moisture is drawn out; about 20 minutes. Squeeze courgette to remove remaining moisture.
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper; cook and stir until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir courgette into the onion mixture; cook and stir until tender and mixture looks dry, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Stir in milk and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Add grated pecorino cheese, pepper and oregano; stir until combined.

My family loved it! We had it as a side. My only comment is possibly should use a little less olive oil. I had a hard time with trying to cook it until it was dry. Flavor was awesome though! - 08 Sep 2018 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
