Provided by Rachel Gaewski

Categories     Dinner

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 medium yukon potatoes
2 medium eggplants, chopped
2 red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste, divided
¾ teaspoon pepper, plus more to taste, divided
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 cloves garlic, minced

1 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth
fresh parsley, for serving

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!

EGGPLANT, POTATO, TOMATO CASSEROLE



Eggplant, Potato, Tomato Casserole image

I am really not a fan of eggplant - unless it's done this way! I found this recipe ten years ago, but haven't made it in a long time. My organic box had an eggplant in it this week, so I had to make it again. I made it with my own spin this time, marinating the tomatoes in a red wine/olive oil/fresh basil vinaigrette, and it was better than ever!

ROASTED TOMATO AND EGGPLANT CASSEROLE



Roasted Tomato and Eggplant Casserole image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     main course, side dish

Time 5h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds plum tomatoes (about 12 to 14), halved
Salt for seasoning, plus 1 teaspoon
Freshly ground black pepper for seasoning, plus 1/4 teaspoon
3 medium eggplants (about 3 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch slices
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 large red onions (about 3 pounds), halved and sliced
3 large yellow onions (about 3 pounds), halved and sliced
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup white wine
2 cups homemade or low-sodium chicken stock
1 1/4 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 1/4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Season the cut sides of the tomatoes lightly with salt and pepper and place cut sides down on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake until the tomatoes are very lightly browned and collapsed, about 3 hours. Set aside.
  • Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees. Sprinkle the eggplant slices lightly with salt and transfer them to a large colander to drain for 30 minutes. Wipe the slices dry with paper towels and place them in a single layer on one or more lightly oiled baking sheets. Roast the eggplant slices, turning once, until they are soft and lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a large, heavy-bottomed kettle, heat the 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat and add the red and yellow onions and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are very soft and lightly caramelized, about 25 minutes. (Lower the heat if the bottom of the pan begins to scorch.) Add the wine, stock, herbs and 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Raise the heat to high and continue to cook until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Lower the oven to 400 degrees. Spread a thin layer of the onion mixture in the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch baking pan. Top with half the eggplant slices, half the tomatoes and half of the remaining onions. Top with the remaining eggplant slices, tomatoes and onions.
  • Bake until bubbly and lightly browned, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes and eggplants. You may also use olive oil instead of vegetable oil for extra flavor. To select the best eggplants, choose ones that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked potatoes. However, cooking your own potatoes will give the dish a more rustic flavor.
  • If you don't have a casserole dish, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven instead.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • Serve the casserole hot with a side of bread or rice. You may also garnish the casserole with fresh herbs, such as parsley or basil.

Conclusion:

This tomato, potato, and eggplant casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. The casserole is packed with flavor and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
