Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium zucchini (390g)
  • 1 small eggplant (150g)
  • 2 medium tomatoes (238g)
  • 50g leek leaves, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the sliced leek leaves for about 3–5 minutes until tender.
  3. In a bowl, mix together water, tomato paste, oregano, thyme (if using), and salt to create the tomato-herb broth.
