Add more oil to frying pan if things start to stick. Eggplant tends to need more oil than other things.
  4. Grease a gratin or baking dish with a bit of vegetable oil, and pour in about 1/3 of the tomato sauce. Lay down 4 slices of tofu as the bottom layer with zucchini layer on top of that. Pour over another 1/3 of the sauce. Sprinkle in some fresh ginger here if using.
