Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium eggplant (about 1 pound), peeled and thinly sliced
salt
3 medium all-purpose potatoes, (about 1 pound), peeled, and thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
2 medium onions
1 red bell pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1 green bell peppers, cored and thinly sliced
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
6 basil leaves, torn into bits
1/3 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • 1 Peel the eggplant and cut it into thin crosswise slices. Layer the slices in a colander, sprinkling each one generously with salt. Place the colander over a plate and let stand 30 to 60 minutes to drain. Rinse the eggplant slices and pat them dry. 2 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Generously oil a 13 × 9 × 2-inch baking dish. 3 Make a layer of overlapping potato slices on the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the potatoes with a layer of eggplant and sprinkle with salt. Add layers of onions, peppers, and tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Scatter the basil over the top. Drizzle with the olive oil. 4 Cover with foil. Bake 45 minutes. Carefully remove the foil. Cook 30 minutes more or until browned and the vegetables are tender when pierced with a knife. Serve warm or at room temperature. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
