A delicious and healthy vegetable tian!
Method
The tomato fondue:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F)
- Peel the tomatoes (To make peeling easier, blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for 30 seconds, then plunge into icy water)
- Dice the tomatoes and simmer in a pot with the garlic, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and sugar.
The onion base layer:
- Peel and finely chop the onions and place in a frying pan. Drizzle with olive oil and cook until soft and translucent.
The Tian:
- Cut the vegetables into thin slices of equal thickness.
- Assemble the tian in an ovenproof pan or dish: In your baking dish, spread the onions and tomato fondue on the bottom and arrange the vegetables on top, alternating the colors.
- Season with salt, pepper, and sugar. Sprinkle with thyme, pour in the olive oil, and place in the pre heated oven.
- Bake at 160°C/180°C (320° F/356°F) for 45 minutes - or until the vegetables are soft and tender.
