1/4 cup minced onion
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon sea salt
Ratatouille:
1/2 medium eggplant (6 ounces), diced (2 cups)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Meanwhile, prepare the Ratatouille in a colander set over a bowl, toss the eggplant with the 1 teaspoon of kosher salt. Let stand for 30 minutes.
