Caponata With Poblanos and Roasted Garlic image

A spicy, tangy and sweet Sicilian cooked vegetable salad with an added Mexican touch. Which gives this significant heat depending on the poblanos. They tend to be mild, to unpredictably hot. Adding 1 whole bulb of roasted garlic bring this to aaaaaAAAAAHHHhhhh YUM levels!!!!.. You can use Recipe #243689 Recipe #248301 these recipes as a guide. Or follow my directions here.I have also Recipe #102724 posted here on zaar which is equally delish.
