Method

  1. Preheat the oven.
  2. Trim the ends of the aubergine and cut lengthways into ¼ inch thick slices. Place the aubergine on a flat surface and sprinkle with salt. Leave for 20 minutes.
  3. Wash the aubergine slices in cold water and dry with paper towels. Arrange on a baking tray and brush with oil. Place on a preheated grill for approximately 3 minutes, until lightly browned.
  4. Turn the slices, brush with oil and grill for 3 further minutes.
  5. Cook the courgette in boiling salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and leave to one side.
  6. To prepare the lasagne: Fill a large pan ¾ full with water, and add 1 tbsp oil and 1 tsp salt. Bring to the boil. Individually place 4 Loprofin Lasagne sheets in the boiling water and cook for 5 minutes, over a medium heat. Carefully remove each lasagne sheet from the pan onto a flat surface. Repeat with the remaining 4 lasagne sheets.
  7. To prepare the sauce: Place the tin chopped tomatoes, chilli powder, sugar and clear vegetable broth in a blender or food processor.
  8. To assemble the rolls, place a slice of aubergine on a flat surface and cover with a sheet of lasagne. Place a slice of tomato at one end and lay two basil leaves and a courgette on top of the tomato.
  9. Roll the aubergine and pasta, from the tomato end, to form a tube. Repeat with remaining aubergine, pasta, tomato, basil and courgette to give 8 rolls.
  10. Pour a thin layer of sauce into the baking dish and arrange the aubergine rolls on the top. Pour the remaining sauce over the rolls and cover the dish with aluminium foil.
  11. Bake for 25 minutes. If desired, garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
