I can't wait to try this again. It was so simple to make and *very* tasty.
Ingredients
- 4 tbs. olive oil shopping list
- 1 large red onion, roughly chopped shopping list
- 1 lb. butternut squash, peeled and cut into ½” pieces shopping list
- 1 lb. eggplant, cut into ½” pieces shopping list
- 4 celery stalks, cut into ¼” slices shopping list
- 4 zucchini, cut into ½” slices shopping list
- 1 lb. canned crushed tomatoes with their juice shopping list
- 2 tbs. chopped fresh parsley shopping list
- 1 tbs. balsamic vinegar shopping list
- 1 tbs. sugar shopping list
- 2 cups fresh white bread crumbs shopping list
- 1 cup finely grated sharp cheddar cheese shopping list
- salt and pepper shopping list
- (I also added a clove of fresh garlic, crushed) shopping list
How to make it
- 1. Heat the oil in the buffet casserole over medium heat on the stovetop. Add the onion and butternut squash and fry gently until they are lightly coloured
- Add the eggplant, celery, and zucchini and continue frying, turning the vegetables occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes with their juice, basil, parsley, vinegar, and sugar with 1 cup of water and plenty of seasoning.
- Cover and simmer slowly for 1 hr 15 minutes to 1 and a half hours until the vegetables are tender; the squash will take the longest to soften
- When the vegetables are tender, remove the buffet casserole from the heat.
- Mix together the bread crumbs and cheese with plenty of seasoning and scatter this evenly over the vegetables.
- Put immediately under a hot broiler to crisp and brown the top.
- Serve straight from the buffet casserole.

Hi, I don't know why you can't see your pictures. Maybe the pictures were too big. Have you put step-by-step pictures before in a recipe successfully? If not, e-mail and I shall try and explain how.
