Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Drizzle a round ovenproof dish with a little oil; then, starting from the outside, tightly layer alternate slices of the vegetables in concentric circles until you get to the middle – sit the head of garlic here. If you have any vegetables left, tuck them into any gaps around the outside. Stick the sprigs of rosemary among the vegetables, drizzle everything generously with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper.

  • step 2

    Roast everything together, drizzling with more oil occasionally, for 50 mins-1 hr, until the vegetables are soft and lightly charred.

  • step 3

    Remove from the oven and leave to stand for a few mins, then remove the garlic and separate it into cloves for squeezing over the vegetables.

RECIPE TIPS
GRIDDLED COURGETTES WITH MINT

For a really summery lunch dish using straight-from-the-garden veg, mash 1 garlic clove, then stir it into 3 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar. Griddle 4 thickly sliced courgettes in batches and, as they cook, toss them in the dressing. Once they are all cooked and cooled, lightly toss through a large handful roughly chopped mint leaves, season to taste and serve.

Followed the recipe and the dish looked great, however found that it was quite bland with little taste, would suggest more seasoning and herbs to give it flavour.

Used white and purple aubergines which looked great with the yellow of the courgette. A bit fiddlely as the slices slipped a little to start with. I used smoked garlic which gave it a lovely taste.

Combined courgettes with yellow, orange and red peppers - worked well, looks pretty.

Tried this after all the good comments. Can only say I was very disappointed, it was surprisingly oily and the aubergine edges were very crispy and tough. A no no from me.
