YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Life Without Diabetes courgette bake By You Magazine - January 12, 2020 This courgette bake dish is a perfect example of simple ingredients, executed well. If you are strapped for time, slice the courgettes into 2cm chunks. It reheats nicely, too, so you can save what’s left for the following day. Chris Alack Prep time 10 minutes Cook time 35-40 minutes Serves 4 400g can chopped tomatoes 1 garlic clove, peeled and roughly chopped 1 quantity Roasted Red Pepper Dressing (see below) 3 medium courgettes 1 tsp olive oil salt and pepper Preheat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. 2. Place the tomatoes and garlic in a saucepan and simmer over a medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the dressing (see below). Blitz with a hand blender until smooth. Season to taste. Pour the tomato sauce into a 28cm x 22cm baking dish and spread out evenly. 3. Using a potato peeler, peel each courgette into long thin ribbons, then loosely roll up each strip like a rose and place on the sauce. Carry on until the entire surface of the sauce is covered. Lightly brush the olive oil over the courgettes and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 25-30 minutes. 4. Serve the courgette bake straight from the oven. FOR THE ROASTED RED PEPPER DRESSING Preheat the oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Roast two whole red peppers on a baking tray for 25 minutes. Add 1 red chilli to the tray and bake for another 10 minutes until the skins blacken and blister. Remove from oven, peel and discard pepper skins then transfer the vegetables to a bowl, cover with clingfilm and leave to cool. Tear each pepper in half, discarding the stem and seeds, and place, with their oil, in a small food processor. Remove the chilli stem and add it, with 20g basil leaves and 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, to the processor. Blitz until smooth and season to taste.
