Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Warm 1 tablespoon of rapeseed oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add 2 sliced onions and 2 chopped large garlic cloves, and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring often until they are softened.
  2. Step 2

    Add 2 diced large courgettes, 1 red and 1 yellow pepper (roughly sliced), along with 400g of chopped tomatoes, 2 tbsp of tomato purée, 2 tsp of vegetable bouillon, and 15g of chopped basil.
  3. Step 3

    Mix thoroughly, cover, and let it cook for 5 minutes. Resist the urge to add extra liquid since the vegetables will release a lot of moisture as they cook.
  4. Step 4

    Cut one large aubergine into slices. Arrange half of the aubergine slices in the bottom of the slow cooker, then layer 3 sheets of lasagne on top.
  5. Step 5

    Incorporate one-third of the ratatouille mixture, followed by the rest of the aubergine slices, 3 additional lasagne sheets, and then the leftover ratatouille mixture.
  6. Step 6

    Place the lid on and cook on High for 2½ - 3 hours, or until the pasta and vegetables have softened. Then, switch off the machine.
  7. Step 7

    Sprinkle 125g of vegetarian buffalo mozzarella on top of the vegetables, then cover and let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and settle.
  8. Step 8

    Sprinkle some additional basil and accompany it with a handful of rocket.
