Ingredients.....(nothing was weighed ), the last of the tomatoes, spinach leaves, baby capsicums, zucchinis, 2 small onions, 1/2 cup of tahini (optional), 1/4 cup of Italian dressing, Italian herb mix, fennel seeds, 1/4 cup of golden syrup, 4 tbs of minced garlic a handful of fresh chopped parsley, mint and basil. If not using tahini, replace it with 1/2 cup of barbeque sauce. Tomatoes and zucchinis from the Schenkel garden. I used my slow cooker to prepare this dish. Spray the bowl of the slow cooker lightly with cooking oil and set on high. Slice / chop the zucchinis finely, peel and slice the onions, peel the tomatoes and chop the pulp, trim and chop the capsicums, trim any large stems from the spinach leaves. Place all the chopped vegetables into the bowl of the slow cooker along with the tahini paste, minced garlic , herbs and golden syrup. Lastly pour over the Italian dressing. Cover the slow cooker and leave to cook for 4 hours on high, stirring occasionally. Enjoy the flavours of the last of the summer harvest as they waft through your house.
