Method
Preparation
- Heat a large skillet or pot over medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Once hot, add the diced eggplant and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Add the chopped zucchinis to the skillet and cook until lightly browned. Set aside.
- Add diced red and green bell peppers to the skillet and sauté until tender and slightly golden. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed and sauté the sliced yellow onion until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the roughly chopped tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Add all the reserved cooked vegetables back into the pot, sprinkle in the herbes de Provence, and adjust seasoning.
- Cover and let it simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, avoiding stirring too much to keep the vegetables intact.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving.
