Here are six reasons why Aussie families love life with a Samsung AI Family Hub TM.

The AI Camera Keeps An Eye On Stock Levels

Never let your fruit or veggies go to waste with AI Vision Inside your Samsung fridge: it identifies 33 different food items and automatically creates a shopping list on your fridge door’s home screen! Manage a myriad use-by dates too, by downloading the SmartThings app and using the settings in Samsung Food. Genius.

2. Produce Stays Fresher For Longer

The stylish French door fridge keeps food fresher than a farmer’s market haul. How? The Metal Cooling plate maintains optimal internal temperature, while Triple Cooling technology ensures each compartment gets its own dose of cool air.

Wondering how to set temperature in a Samsung fridge? Swipe the home screen, then tap the Fridge Manager widget to adjust the coolness of the fridge and freezer.

For extra personalisation, use the Cool Select+/Flex Zone mode. Choose/pick what’s chilling in your freezer, and voila! The temperature settings adjust accordingly, ensuring each item stays perfectly cold or frozen to your liking.

Your smart fridge also nips odours in the bud by never recycling the same air throughout, and makes short work of stubborn smells with the built-in UV Deodorising Filter. Scent-sational.

Cook time: 60 mins

Serves 8

Ingredients

Vegetables

2 eggplants

6 roma tomatoes

2 yellow squashes

2 zucchinis

Sauce

2 tbsp olive oil

1 medium white onion, diced

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 red capsicum, seeded and diced

1 yellow capsicum, seeded and diced

Salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

795g crushed tomatoes

2 tbsp thinly sliced fresh basil

Herb Seasoning

2 tbsp thinly sliced fresh basil

1 tsp minced garlic

2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley

2 tsp fresh thyme leaves

Salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 tbsp olive oil

Method

Preheat oven to 190°C.
Using a sharp knife or mandoline, slice the eggplant, tomatoes, squash and zucchini into approximately 1mm-thick rounds, then set aside.
Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a 30cm oven-safe pan over medium-high heat.
Sauté the onion, garlic and capsicum until soft, approximately 10 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper, then add the crushed tomatoes. Stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Remove from heat. Add the basil, stir, then add the sauce to the oven-safe pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Arrange the vegetables in alternating slices – e.g. eggplant, tomato, squash, zucchini – on top of the sauce, working from the outer edge to the centre of the pan. Season with salt and pepper.
Make the herb seasoning: In a small bowl, mix the basil, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, pepper and olive oil, then spoon this over the vegetables.
Cover the pan with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, then bake for another 20 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Serve hot as a main dish or a side.
Leftovers will still taste great the next day – cover with foil and reheat to 180°C for 15 minutes, or microwave to the desired temperature.

Which Samsung Family Hub is for you?

Do you go for the Samsung 636L AI Family Hub TM Refrigerator or the roomier Samsung 809L AI Family Hub TM Refrigerator? Peter Simic can help.

“Measure how much space there is for your fridge to slot into. To enable good ventilation, allow at least 50mm extra space at the sides and rear of your fridge, and 100mm extra at the top,” Peter recommends.

“Also consider how much you’ll need to pack in: are you a buy-in-bulk shopper or a daily topper-upper?”
