Instructions to make Tourlou Tourlou 🌱:

1. Wash and chop the veggies. Heat a pan with just a little oil and add the veggies in the pan in the order they will take to cook. You can add some of the tomatoes but save some for the sauce. Start with the onions and sauté until translucent, add the garlic and then the peppers and courgettes. You want to sauté until cooked but not soft and squishy. You could pop them in a roasting tray in the oven if you prefer..
2. Grate the tomatoes on top of the veggies. You can use good quality crushed tomatoes if you prefer. Add the hard herbs - bay and thyme. Cook on a gentle simmer until the veg take on the flavour of the garlic and tomatoes..
3. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of soft herbs and a squeeze of lemon 🍋.

I kind of don't want to reveal the source of the sweetness, because it comes from an ingredient many people think they don't like.
