Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 large courgette (zucchini)
  • 1 tbs tomato puree
  • 100 g mini mozzarella balls
  • Italian dried mixed herbs

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (Gas mark 6/390°F). Brush a baking tray with a little of the olive oil.
  • Wash and dry the courgette and cut each end off (discard the ends).  Cut the courgette into thick slices.
  • Place slices on the baking tray and brush with the rest of the oil.
  • Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then take out the tray, turn all of the courgette pieces over and spread a thin layer of tomato puree on each piece.
  • Add one mozzarella ball to each slice (larger slices might need two) and sprinkle with the herbs.
  • Bake in the oven for another 8 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the courgette cooked through.
  • Leave to cool for a few minutes before serving.
