Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425˚ F.
- Use a silicone baking mat or cover a baking pan with aluminum foil. Spray with olive oil (may substitute vegetable oil spray but I prefer the extra flavor of olive oil).
- Toss the eggplant with salt and place in a colander for 30 minutes to drain off bitter juices. (I often skip this part if my eggplant is small and very fresh.)
- Put the potatoes into a large bowl and spray with oil. Toss to lightly coat all pieces. Sprinkle half of the salad dressing mix over the potatoes and toss again. Spread on a prepared baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
- Rinse eggplant well and pat dry. Put the eggplant, zucchini, onions, mushrooms, and red pepper in a large bowl, spray with oil and toss with the remaining dry salad dressing. Add to potatoes on a baking pan and stir carefully. Continue roasting vegetables until tender about 30-40 minutes.
- Serve immediately. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley or basil, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
- With a sharp knife, score a ring around each potato, just deep enough to break the skin. Place the potatoes in a medium pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 8 minutes, until about halfway cooked.
- Drain the potatoes, and rinse with cold water. Peel off the skin.
- Cut the potatoes into ½-inch (1 cm) pieces and set aside.
- Divide the eggplant and bell peppers between 2 baking sheets and spread in an even layer. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss with your hands to coat.
- Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent.
- Add the tomato paste and stir until well distributed, then add the garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¾ teaspoon pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
- Add the potatoes, chickpeas, and tomatoes, and stir to incorporate.
- Stir in the vegetable broth and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
- Add the roasted eggplant and bell pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, until the tomatoes have mostly broken down.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with parsley, and serve. Or, transfer the stew to resealable containers and store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for up to 3 months.
- Enjoy!

ROASTED JAPANESE EGGPLANT WITH CRUSHED TOMATO, PECORINO AND THYME
This roasted eggplant was adapted from a recipe from the Phoenix chef Chris Bianco, who regularly showcases Arizona eggplant as an antipasto at his restaurants Pizzeria Bianco and Tratto. But it works just as well with thick sliced conventional eggplant, and tomato sauce or sweet peppers substituted for the heirloom tomato. The succulent roasted eggplant comes together with the comforting flavors of the thyme, garlic and tomato. Serve as a side, or pair with polenta or fresh bread to round out a main course.

Steps:
- For the bread crumbs: In a medium bowl, combine pecorino, panko, salt, pepper, olive oil, and parsley. Mix well until crumbs are evenly coated with oil. Set aside.
- For the eggplant and tomatoes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine red tomatoes, yellow tomatoes, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, tomato puree, garlic, eggplant and 1/3 cup olive oil. Add half of the bread crumb mixture. With your hands or two spoons, gently mix the vegetables and bread crumb mixture until thoroughly combined.

Tips:
- Choose the right eggplant: Look for eggplants that are firm and have a deep purple color. Avoid eggplants that are soft or have blemishes.
- Roast the eggplant properly: Roasting the eggplant brings out its natural sweetness and smoky flavor. Make sure to roast the eggplant until it is tender and slightly charred.
- Use good quality harissa: Harissa is a North African chili paste that adds a spicy and flavorful kick to the dish. Choose a harissa that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients.
- Don't overcook the potatoes: The potatoes should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooking the potatoes will make them mushy.
- Serve the dish hot: This dish is best served hot, so make sure to serve it immediately after it is cooked.
Conclusion:
This roasted eggplant with harissa potatoes and tomatoes is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The roasted eggplant is tender and smoky, the harissa potatoes are spicy and flavorful, and the tomatoes add a touch of sweetness and acidity.
