Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ cups cubed salami
1 medium onion, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
6 cloves garlic, crushed
1 large eggplant - peeled, seeded, and cubed
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
dried oregano to taste
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 bay leaves
4 green onions, chopped
6 cups water
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the salami, and cook until evenly browned. Mix in onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook until tender. Mix in eggplant, tomato paste, and cilantro, and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Continue cooking 15 minutes. Mash the eggplant as it softens, and add a little water if necessary to keep the ingredients from drying out.
