I have a lot of eggplant in my garden, so I am looking for various ways to prepare it. This was served as a side dish in the recipe, but I served it as a meatless main dish over brown rice.
I omitted the olives since I had none and they were very expensive in the store. I will look for them on sale when I make this dish again.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour
Yield: 8 side servings and 4-6 main servings
Ingredients:
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup oil (I used less)
- 3 cups chopped eggplant
- 3/4 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Tbsp wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup chopped olives
- 1/4 tsp basil
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- salt and pepper to taste
Steps:
- Saute onion and garlic.
- Add eggplant, mushrooms and green pepper. Mix well. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add tomato paste, water, vinegar, olives and seasonings. Simmer for 30 to 40 minutes or until you get the consistency you like.
