Red pepper and aubergine bake

This warming vegetable bake works great as a meat-free main or even as a veggie side, to accompany something like cod or tuna - we love it on a slice of warm ciabatta!


Ingredients

  • 1 Potato large
  • 6tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium Aubergine chopped into chunks
  • 1 large Courgette thickly sliced
  • 1 Red pepper deseeded and thickly sliced
  • 1 Yellow pepper deseeded and thickly sliced
  • ½ Red chilli deseeded and roughly chopped (optional)
  • 25g Pine nuts
  • 1 jar of Dolmio Taste of Sicily sauce
  • 100ml Water
  • 125g Ball of buffalo Mozzarella roughly chopped

Method

  • Step 1

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan and when hot, add the vegetables and potato. If you like things spicy, add the chilli. For those that prefer some crunch, add the pine nuts too. Fry until starting to brown and soften. Keep stirring and tossing the pan. Season with plenty of salt and pepper. Pour in the jar of Dolmio Taste of Sicily sauce, add the water and let it reduce.

  • Step 2

    Divide the contents of the pan between four individual serving dishes and then add a quarter of the Mozzarella to each, pushing the pieces in slightly. Bake for around 10-15 minutes or until browned and sizzling. Serve with crusty focaccia.
