  • 1 yellow capsicum, sliced
  • 1 red capsicum, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 courgettes, sliced
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 F (180 degrees) and lightly grease a 10-12″ oven-safe baking dish.

To prepare the sauce, heat the oil in a pot, add the onion and garlic and sauté until soft. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, add seasonings and simmer the sauce for another 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the basil. Spread the mixture into the baking dish and smooth it with a spatula.

Garnish with a few basil leaves.
