Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4). Put the whole red and yellow peppers, tomatoes, onions, eggplant and the head of garlic (from the garlic dressing) on a baking tray. Do not peel, core or cut any of the vegetables. Roast the vegetables for 40 minutes.
  2. Add the leeks or spring onions to the tray and bake for a further 20 minutes, until all the vegetables are very soft and slightly blackened. Remove from the oven.
  3. When the vegetables are cool enough to handle, peel the peppers, removing the seeds, and cut into long strips. Peel and seed the tomatoes, and cut into wedges. Peel the onions and cut into wedges. Scoop the eggplants flesh out of the skin with a large spoon, and cut the flesh into long strips. Peel the outer layer form the leeks or spring onions. Reserve any juices from the tray. Arrange the vegetables on a serving platter.
Garlic Dressing
  1. Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the garlic head crosswise at the widest point. Squeeze the garlic flesh into a small bowl, add the olive oil and some of the reserved vegetable juices, as desired, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  2. Drizzle the dressing over the roasted vegetables, sprinkle with the thyme and serve warm.
