Equipment
- Oven
- stove
- 9" round, or oval baking dish
Ingredients
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 large shallot, minced
- 28 oz petite diced tomatoes
- ½ sumo citrus, cut into pieces
- 1 tbsp italian seasoning
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 eggplant, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp Sumo Citrus® Brightland Olive Oil
- 8 basil leaves, thinly sliced
- flaky sea salt, to serve
Method
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Heat a large skillet over medium low heat. Add a splash of water or cooking oil to coat. Add in the garlic and shallot and sauté until tender and fragrant. Pour in the tomatoes with juices and reduce heat to low, simmering for 10-15 minutes.
- While the sauce is simmering, salt the veggies and transfer them to a colander for 10-15 minutes to release excess liquid.
- Add in the Sumo Citrus® chunks to the tomato sauce, along with the Italian seasoning, and simmer for another 2 minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth and creamy. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into a 9" round or oval baking dish.
- Blot the veggies with a paper towel and arrange in a layered ring in the baking dish atop the sauce. Drizzle with a generous swirl of Sumo Citrus® Brightland olive oil. Transfer to the oven and bake for 30 minutes until the veggies are tender.
- Remove from the oven and serve warm, spooned over pasta, rice, or your grilled protein of choice!
