INSTRUCTIONS
Heat the oven to 190øC/375øF/gas mark 5. Cut the aubergines lenghways into very thin slices (about 1 mm thick), discarding the outer pieces (you should have 12 slices). Lay the slices on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Do the same with the courgettes. Mix the garlic with the juice of 1 lemon, the wine, 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 tsp sugar, salt and pepper, blend with a hand-blender and then brush on to the aubergine and courgette slices. Bake for 10-15 minutes until tender. While still warm lay 3 leaves of basil on each slice of aubergine and then lay a slice of courgette on top and leave to cool slighty. This will release the oils from the basil into the aubergine. Cut the smoked salmon into strips of a similar size to the courgette slices and lay a piece of salmon on top of each. Mix the chives with the cottage cheese, fromage frais and pine nuts and season to taste with a small amount of salt and lots of black pepper. Spread on to the smoked salmon and then roll up into 12 rolls. To make the sauce: Soften the onion and garlic in the olive oil over a low heat. Add the balsamic vinegar and sugar and simmer until reduced by half. Add the passata, peppers, and tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt, pepper and a dash of sweet chilli sauce. Whisk the remaining lemon juice with the zest, the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Toss the spinach in the lemon vinaigrette and then saut for 30 seconds until just beginning to wilt. Serve the aubergine cannelloni with the warm spinach and Provencal suace. This could also be served cold. Converted by MC_Buster.
