Drain the cooked pasta and drizzle olive oil all over, then mix in the diced courgette mixture with the onions and garlic. Add half the Parmesan cheese. Serve on a plate and add the fried courgettes. Add the remaining Parmesan cheese.
Finish by drizzling more olive oil all over and decorating with chopped mint.
