INSTRUCTIONS

a
For the coulis, marinate all the ingredients for 1-2 hours. Remove the
shallots and pass through a sieve. Allow to stand in the fridge.  Cook
the garlic very gently in the olive oil until soft. Allow to  cool. Put
some of the garlic oil into a hot pan and warm through the  tomato 1/4s
and roasted pepper. Fry the aubergine until golden brown  and tender on
both sides. Drain on some kitchen paper.  Blanch the spinach leaves in
boiling water and then put into cool  water. Dry on a tea towel being
careful not to tear them. Fry the  courgettes until golden brown but
still firm.  Line a salad ring with the spinach leaves and place a
slice of  aubergine in the bottom. Arrange the rest of the vegetables
into the  centre of the ring. Place another slice of aubergine on top
and fold  the spinach leaves over the top making a parcel effect.
Place into a moderate oven to warm through. Serve with the coulis.
