Small marrow looks a bit like a cucumber you can boil them for about 8 mins and service as side vegetable or you can put them into casseroles.

they seem almost more like a pepper type than cuc to me

makes me think of Mangoes.. never had heard of them until I moved to & lived in Panama for 2 years. WE had 5 large trees in back of officer housing we lived in. The rotted /fermented on ground. Thousands of them. I tought they were very stringy & a poor substitute for a peach..

now in stores they are VERY expensive.. I don't buy them. Didn't like them when they were abundant & free & don't like them now.

I have never heard of courgettes myself snugs
