Directions

  1. Cut the ingredients into pieces about the size of a matchbox, after peeling and washing them. *In a medium-sized, deep pot (preferably made of Teflon), sauté the chopped onions in olive oil until they turn a rosy color.
  2. We should also add the diced tomatoes, as well as the eggplant, zucchini, potatoes, hot peppers, and green peppers, all cut into pieces. ≈ 3 min
  3. After lightly sautéing the tomatoes, arrange them in a pot. ≈ 3 min
  4. Also, add the cloves of Allium sativum (garlic), one at a time. ≈ 3 min
  5. After adding a pinch of salt, we also place a spoonful of sugar in the center. ≈ 3 min
  6. Close the lid and let it simmer over low heat.
  7. Once the vegetables are tender (you can check this by using a fork, for example, if it easily pierces the vegetables, it means they are cooked), it’s time to cover the pot. ≈ 3 min
  8. Serve chilled. ≈ 2 min
  9. Enjoy your meal. ≈ 3 min
  10. Based on your taste preferences and the type of dish you want to prepare, you can add different vegetables or spices. ≈ 3 min
