I agree with you about eyeballing things - I usually think twice before I post a recipe because it's so sketchy :)Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345165456341197559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536895335969103038.post-31251615694092921562016-07-28T09:54:49.349-06:002016-07-28T09:54:49.349-06:00The restaurant always serves it with bell peppers ...The restaurant always serves it with bell peppers and onions, fairly coarsely chopped. We've added mushrooms and greens at home, but the peppers-and-onions is the classic.<br /><br />As to amounts, it's probably three cups-ish. Honestly, I probably shouldn't even post recipes since I eyeball so much...not that I let that stop me, obviously! :)<br /><br />For Matt and me we'll use, two bell peppers, one large onion, and around five eggplants, on average, but of course, it depends on if they're big honkin' peppers, itty-bitty eggplants, etc.<br /><br />We've done it two ways. One, while the eggplants were roasting I stir fried the peppers and onions and then combine everything at the end. Two, I roast the eggplant until it's about half done and then add in the peppers and onions and let them all finish roasting together. Both work. The latter is easier, has fewer dishes, and doesn't heat up the kitchen so much, but there is something about stir-fried peppers that I love more. So, it's a toss up.BLD in MThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06449967376288331137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2536895335969103038.post-92065960206252841092016-07-28T09:36:03.849-06:002016-07-28T09:36:03.849-06:00I didn't think I liked it for a long time beca...I didn't think I liked it for a long time because I'd only had the big, fat Italian kind. While I can eat those now, they are still not my favorite. The skinny Asian ones have a thinner skin and texture that appeals to me more. That was a SWELL discovery.
