Ingredients

• 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

• 2 Aubergines, cut into thin slices lengthways

• 500g Spinach

• 250g Ricotta

• Grating of Nutmeg (optional)

• 350g Passata Sauce

• 4 Tablespoons Fresh Breadcrumbs

• 4 Tablespoons Parmesan (or vegetarian alternative)

• Side salad of your choice or steamed greens

Method

1. Heat oven to 200°C. Brush both sides of the aubergine slices with oil, then lay on a large baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 mins until tender, turning once.

2. Meanwhile, put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water to wilt. Cool, then squeeze out the excess water, so that it is dry. Mix with the ricotta, nutmeg and plenty of seasoning.

3. Dollop a spoonful of the cheesy spinach mix in the centre of each aubergine slice, fold over to make a parcel and place sealed-side down in an oven-proof dish.

4. Pour over the tomato sauce, sprinkle with breadcrumbs and cheese, and bake for 20-25 mins until golden. Serve with a side salad or steamed greens.
