Cooking Steps
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Roughly chop the oregano leaves and cut the Romano pepper into strips.
- Dice the eggplant and the courgette into 1cm chunks.
- Transfer the vegetables and the oregano to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat.
- Transfer the vegetables to a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space to add the bread later (see Tip).
- Roast for 20 - 25 minutes, or until done.
Tip: use two baking sheets if you're cooking for three or more people.
- In the meantime, boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan.
- Cook the orzo for 10 - 12 minutes until al dente, then drain and set aside.
- Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Fry the onion with half of the garlic for 3 minutes, then deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and the passata.
- Add the smoked paprika and the sugar and allow to simmer for 5 - 7 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Cut open the bread roll and drizzle generously with olive oil. Scatter over the Sicilian-style herbs and the rest of the garlic, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Bake the bread alongside the vegetables for 8 minutes.
- Crumble the cheese and roughly chop the basil.
- Transfer both to a bowl and season to taste with pepper.
- Stir the roasted vegetables into the orzo.
- Serve the smoky tomato sauce on plates and top with the orzo.
- Garnish with the cheesy basil topping.
- Cut the bread into strips and serve alongside.
