half a red capsicum chopped
1 small zucchini
2 garlic cloves finely chopped

Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
Fry onion and garlic for 2 minutes, add tomatoes, sambal,  spinach, capsicum, zucchini and mushroom and fry for a further 5 minutes or until veggies begin to soften. Take them off the heat and allow to cool.
Take your chillies and carefully cut around the stalks, remove and scrape out seeds using a sharp knife or teaspoon.
