Tips
- If you don have a round tray, use a large rectangular one - just make sure it 's large, metal-based (not glass or ceramic) and shallow so the vegetables crisp up rather than just steam.
- The aubergines, courgettes, and tomatoes aren't drained, creating a delicious sauce at the bottom of the tray.
- Serve with light 'bidda' (flatbread) to soak up all the juices.
