Ingredients
2 tablespoons Sea Salt
4 large aubergines, halved lengthways
2 courgettes, diced
2 onions, chopped

2 large tomatoes, cut into chunks
4 tablespoons Garlic Italian Seasoning

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
- 1 Sprinkle the Salt over the aubergines and leave them to stand for 20 minutes to release their bitter juices.
- 2 Pre-heat the oven to 200°C, 400°F, Gas Mark 6. Rinse the aubergines and pat them dry with kitchen paper.
- 3 Using a small sharp knife, cut a deep oval groove from the centre of each aubergine half. Dice the aubergine flesh and place the hollowed out shells on a large baking sheet.
- 4 Toss the diced aubergine with the courgettes, onions, red pepper and mushrooms on a separate baking tray. Sprinkle with the Garlic Italian Seasoning and drizzle with oil. Roast the vegetables in the oven above the shells for 30 minutes.
- 5 Spoon the roasted vegetables into the shells and drizzle with more oil. Cook for a further 20-25 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges, a drizzle of oil and season with Coarse Ground Black Pepper.
