Aubergine Bake
Ingredients
1 Aubergines
2 Onions
3 Tomatoes (red)
Method
Peel and slice the aubergine into rings. Slice the onions and tomatoes. Fry the aubergine in olive oil and a little butter if required. Place the aubergine in a lightly oiled baking dish. Season with salt and pepper. Fry the onions until lightly caramelised and place over the aubergine. Fry the tomatoes and layer over the onions. Season again. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the dish with a little grated cheese if required. Bake in a hot oven 180�C until golden brown.
Notes
Frying the aubergine can use a lot of oil and butter. To reduce the amount toss the pieces of aubergine in olive oil first to coat them.
The breadcrumb topping is optional. Without it the tomatoes get a bit caramelised which is a nice alternative.
This dish keeps well in the fridge and can be reheated.
The quantity of each vegetable will depend on their sizes and how much you want to make.
