I don't like stew with a bunch of peppers and tomatoes (or rather, my stomach does not!). But this stew has a lot of interesting textures, even if you leave out the red pepper! It's from the "Moosewood Restaurant Low-Fat Favorites". I also don't like eggplant very much, but it tasted very good in this. It will surprise you. Don't leave out the fennel bulb!

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 medium onions, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small eggplant
3 small potatoes
1 fresh fennel bulb, thinly slice the bulb part only
1 medium zucchini
3 fresh tomatoes
1 red pepper (if you really want it)
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil or 1 1/2 tablespoons dried basil
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Sweat the garlic, onion and salt in the oil for 5-7 minutes on a low heat in a covered pan. Stir frequently.
  • While that is sweating, chop up the vegetables. First add the eggplant, then potatoes, fennel, pepper, zuchinni, and tomatoes.
  • Sprinkle in the dried basil now, but save the fresh to add at the end if using that.
  • Increase heat and simmer for 40 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
