Part-make this simple but delicious recipe in advance, so you have more time to spend with your guests. You’ll just have to resist eating the marinated Boursin® cheese balls beforehand

Recipe

Ingredients

  • 300g Boursin® Garlic & Herbs
  • 350ml olive oil, plus 2 tbsp
  • small bunch of basil, finely chopped
  • handful of mint leaves, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 2 courgettes, chopped or sliced
  • 2 red peppers, chopped
  • 2 aubergines, chopped
  • a few thyme sprigs
  • 250g vine cherry tomatoes

Method

Step 1
Roll the Boursin® Garlic & Herbs into balls around the size of a large marble – you’ll make around 20. Pour the olive oil into a large, sterilised jar, then spread the chopped basil and mint on two separate plates. Roll half of the Boursin® cheese balls in the basil and half in the mint, then drop into the olive oil along with 1 garlic clove. Screw the lid on the jar, then chill for at least 2 hrs (it can be kept in the fridge for up to a month).

Step 2
When ready to serve, heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Add the courgette, red pepper, aubergine and 2 garlic cloves to a roasting tin, then drizzle over the 2 tbsp of olive oil. Scatter over the thyme sprigs, then combine everything together. Cook for 30 mins, then add the tomatoes and roast for a further 10-15 mins, until the veg is tender and beginning to char.

Step 3
Serve the veg with the juices from the tin. Top with the marinated Boursin® cheese balls and a little oil from the jar, if you like.
