GRILLED EGGPLANT, PEPPERS AND ONIONS
The happy mix of eggplant, peppers and onions is found throughout the Mediterranean. Cooking the vegetables over hot coals adds a welcome smokiness, but even a stovetop grill gives a hint of smoky flavor, so don't fret if you can't grill outside. This salad is meant to be served at room temperature. Feel free to make it up to 2 hours ahead.

Steps:
- Prepare a bed of hot coals in a charcoal grill, or heat a stovetop grill to medium-high. Arrange eggplants, onions and peppers on a baking sheet. Paint vegetables lightly on both sides with olive oil.
- Working in batches, grill all vegetables on both sides until softened and lightly charred, about 5 to 6 minutes per side. When all vegetables are cooked, chop them into rough chunks and place in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and the vinegar. Season well with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Add capers and toss again.
- Transfer mixture to a serving dish and sprinkle with oregano and crushed red pepper. Serve at room temperature.

NORTHEASTERN POTATO, EGGPLANT AND PEPPERS
Di san xian is a Dongbei classic that loosely means "three delights from the earth." It is a stir-fry of golden fried potatoes, eggplant wedges and crisp green peppers, laced with vinegar and studded with garlic, that tastes like much more than the sum of its parts.

Steps:
- Cut potatoes and eggplant into wedges about 3 inches long. Cut peppers into pieces about 1 inch by 3 inches. In a bowl, whisk together stock, cornstarch, soy sauce and vinegar.
- In a wok, heat 3 cups oil to about 350 degrees, until a bit of potato bubbles fiercely when dropped in. Working in batches to avoid crowding pan, deep-fry potatoes, then eggplant, until golden all over and brown around edges, about 5 minutes a batch. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
- Discard frying oil from wok and reheat wok over high heat until a drop of water sizzles on contact. Swirl in 1 1/2 tablespoons oil and add peppers, stir-frying briskly until edges just start to brown. Add garlic, stir-fry 30 seconds, then return fried potatoes and eggplant to wok, stir-frying to combine.
- Add half the liquid mixture. Let simmer, stirring gently, until sauce is hot and thickened. Taste vegetables for doneness; they should be tender but not mushy. Cook, adding liquid a little at a time and allowing it to cook down, until vegetables are done. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Blend together the paste ingredients in a food processor until smooth - about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Heat the butter or oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Toss in the ground coriander, ground cumin, paprika, tumeric and curry powder, and stir until fragrant - about 1 minute. Pour in the paste from the food processor and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed and you are left with a fairly thick paste - 10 minutes.
- Stir in the coconut milk, water or vegetable stock, chickpeas, chili or curry paste if using, sugar, salt, cinnamon stick, raisins, potato and peppers. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Preheat an oven to 350°F. Trim the edges of the eggplant and cut into generous 1/2-inch thick slices. Season both sides with salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the slices in a 13 × 9 inch casserole dish. Discard the cinnamon stick and ladle the sauce over the eggplant slices. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 60 minutes.
- To serve, dish out one or two pieces of eggplant and spoon some sauce on top. Garnish with some almonds and fresh parsley or cilantro and serve with rice or quinoa on top or on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
- With a sharp knife, score a ring around each potato, just deep enough to break the skin. Place the potatoes in a medium pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 8 minutes, until about halfway cooked.
- Drain the potatoes, and rinse with cold water. Peel off the skin.
- Cut the potatoes into ½-inch (1 cm) pieces and set aside.
- Divide the eggplant and bell peppers between 2 baking sheets and spread in an even layer. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss with your hands to coat.
- Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent.
- Add the tomato paste and stir until well distributed, then add the garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¾ teaspoon pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add the potatoes, chickpeas, and tomatoes, and stir to incorporate.
- Stir in the vegetable broth and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
- Add the roasted eggplant and bell pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, until the tomatoes have mostly broken down.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with parsley, and serve. Or, transfer the stew to resealable containers and store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for up to 3 months.
- Enjoy!
