Instructions:

Preheat Your Oven:
Begin by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C), ensuring it’s ready to bake your flavorful vegetable medley. -
Prepare the Vegetables:
In a medium-sized casserole dish, combine the diced aubergine, sliced zucchinis, and mushrooms. Toss them together to mix evenly. -
Mix the Sauce:
In a bowl, combine the tomato paste, tomato ketchup, red chili powder, chopped green chilies, cumin powder, and minced garlic. Stir in the water to achieve a sauce-like consistency. -
Combine Ingredients:
Pour the prepared tomato sauce over the vegetables in the casserole dish. Mix well to ensure that all the vegetables are coated with the sauce. -
Bake the Vegetables:
Place the casserole in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to promote even cooking. The vegetables should become tender and slightly browned at the edges. -
Final Touches:
If the dish looks too dry, add a bit more water as needed. The final result should be a relatively dry, rich tomato sauce with tender vegetables. -
Serve:
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. This dish pairs wonderfully with a variety of sides or can be enjoyed on its own.
