Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 cups cubed eggplant ((no need to peel))
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup red bell pepper (diced)
- 15 ounces diced tomatoes (fresh or canned)
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon cayenne (optional)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- minced parsley (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a medium sauce pot over medium-high heat then sauté garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add eggplant and salt to the pot and fry until eggplant starts to soften, about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add peppers to the pan and continue to sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Pour in diced tomatoes and all remaining ingredients to the pan and increase heat to high. Bring pan to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer until vegetables are soft and flavors develop, about 30 minutes.

Notes
- Can be served warm, room temperature or chilled. Delicious with pita bread or on its own as a side dish.
