A vegetable-packed Mediterranean stew
Ingredients
  • Olive oil
  • 2 green peppers, cut into medium size cubes
  • 2 medium courgettes, cut into medium size cubes
  • 2 medium aubergines, cut into medium size cubes
  • 2 ripe tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 sprig of rosemary leaves, finely chopped
  • 4 sprigs of thyme leaves, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon garlic oil
  • 100g pitted black olives
  • A small handful of basil leaves, torn
Instructions
  1. Heat a large frying pan on a medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and gently fry the green peppers for 10-15 minutes until they start to soften then place in a large bowl and set aside
  2. Repeat this step with the courgettes, then the aubergines and finally the tomatoes, adding more olive oil when necessary and cooking each batch of vegetables separately for 5-10 minutes until lightly browned and softened then place in the large bowl
  3. Add all the vegetables from the bowl, rosemary and thyme to a large frying pan on a low heat, season with salt and pepper, put the lid on and simmer gently for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a little more water if necessary (if you don't have a frying pan with a lid, a large saucepan with a lid will do fine)
  4. To serve, stir through the pitted olives, drizzle over the garlic oil and sprinkle the basil leaves on top
  5. Freeze any leftovers for another day
