Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.

• In a high-sided skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the eggplant, vegetable stir-fry blend, artichokes hearts, garlic, red pepper flakes and season with salt and pepper. Saute until vegetables are almost completely cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes, cover and simmer on low until the eggplant is soft and the ratatouille is thickened slightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Just before serving, stir in the basil. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.

• Place 2/3 of the cooked vegetables in blender or food processor and blend to a coarse purée.
• Add remaining vegetable broth to pan and bring to a soft boil. Rinse and pat dry your filets of sole. Spread a thin layer of the zucchini and spinach purée onto each of the 8 filets.
• Roll each filet of sole tightly and place seam down into vegetable broth. Reduce heat to a simmer. Return any remaining vegetable purée to pan. Poach filets until cooked (about 8 to 10 minutes) -- cooking time will depend on thickness of filets.
• Place 2 filets on each plate and drizzle the cooking broth on top. Serve with the remaining vegetables.
• * if you like a creamier broth add the cream to your pan just before serving. You'll get a much brighter green broth with the cream which is fun on St Patrick's Day.
