Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 red bell peppers
1 large eggplant, cut lengthwise into 3/8-inch-thick slices
Olive oil
2 large zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 11-ounce package soft mild goat cheese (such as Montrachet), room temperature
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 large bunch fresh arugula, chopped
1/2 cup chopped pitted brine-cured olives (such as Niçoise or Kalamata)
Fresh arugula leaves
French bread

Steps:

  • Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Place in bag and let stand 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Preheat broiler. Brush both sides of eggplant with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Broil until cooked through and golden, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Brush both sides of zucchini with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Broil until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  • Puree cheese in processor until smooth. With machine running, add 3 tablespoons oil through feed tube. Add bell peppers; process using on/off turns until peppers are coarsely chopped and cheese mixture begins to color. Add thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Line 9x5-inch glass loaf pan with plastic, leaving 4-inch overhang. Place single layer of zucchini in bottom of pan, covering completely and trimming to fit. Spread 1/3 of cheese mixture over. Top with 1/3 of chopped arugula and 1/3 of olives. Cover with single layer of eggplant, trimming to fit. Spread 1/3 of cheese over, top with 1/3 of chopped arugula and 1/3 of olives. Repeat with remaining zucchini, cheese, chopped arugula and olives. Finish with layer of eggplant. Fold plastic over to cover; press down gently on eggplant. Cover; chill until firm, at least 6 hours. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.)
  • Line platter with arugula leaves. Open plastic wrap on top of terrine. Unmold terrine onto platter, lift off pan and peel off plastic. Serve with bread.
