Steps:

• Put the tomatoes, garlic, ginger, cayenne, cumin, paprika, turmeric, garam masala, curry powder and a large pinch of salt in a medium Dutch oven. Stir to combine and set over medium-high heat. Bring to a strong simmer, lower the heat to medium, partially cover the pot with a lid (this will prevent splattering) and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the red bell pepper, zucchini, eggplant, onion and a large pinch of salt to the pot. Stir to combine and set over medium-high heat. Bring to a strong simmer, then lower the heat to medium, partially cover with a lid (this will prevent from splattering) and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender but not mushy, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the coconut oil until melted, about 30 seconds. Season to taste with additional salt if needed.
