Preparation
Side-by-side mode
- Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C).
- Roll prosciutto slice and set over an oven-safe baking sheet. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, set all 7 vegetables and spread with oregano or italian seasoning. Salt and pepper and spray with olive oil. Mix well and be sure that oil and seasonings are well divided. Add a few more drops of olive oil if needed.
- Pour vegetables over a large oven safe plate covered with aluminium paper and divide well by taking care not to stack all in the same place over the baking sheet.
- Set the plate with vegetables over the lowest oven grill and the plate with prosciutto rolls on the superior grill. Broil for 30 minutes or until vegetables are well coloured. Turn the food around at mid-baking.
- Meanwhile, in a large casserole, cook chopped pork or italian sausage at medium heat while crumbling frequently with the help of a large spoon.
- When meat is cooked, drain fats within the casserole then add the remaining ingredients. Mix and bring to a boil.
- Remove foods from oven and finely or roughly chop everything up to your taste. Add chopped roasted vegetables and prosciutto to the tomato sauce and mix it up a few times. Lower heat a medium-low heat and for 20 to 30 minutes until the sauce thickers.
- Remove casserole from heat, cover and set aside for about 5 minutes before serving with raviolis or cheese tortellinis.
