How to cook deliciously - Grandpa's appetizer

1. Stage

It's very simple. It's faster to do than to write a recipe. Wash the vegetables. Bake bell peppers in a 230 ° C oven for 25-30 minutes until brown. We need fleshy peppers, any color you like, this time I have yellow. Half a kilo of peppers is two medium-sized peppers.

2. Stage

Boil whole eggplants in water for about 10-20 minutes from the boil. Half a kilo of eggplants is three small or two big ones. Large bubble eggplants will need 20 minutes. To avoid bitterness, prick them in several places with a fork. Smaller eggplant bunches will take 15 minutes to cook. As for the long ones - which, by the way, are the most delicious as appetizers - 10 minutes will be enough. You do not have to prick them with a fork, young eggplants are not usually bitter. Eggplants should become soft but should not turn into a mousse - do not overcook! When time is up, take the eggplants out, let them cool a bit, and then chop them up roughly when they are hot. We put slices of eggplant in a colander or sieve, salt well and put on top of a small oppressor, for example, a liter jar of cucumbers. Leave to drain for 20 minutes.

Put the baked bell peppers for five minutes in a container with a lid, plastic bag or other, so that then the skin comes off easier. Under a stream of cold running water, free the pepper from the skin. Put in a bowl, let peppers cool, pour off accumulated liquid. And cut in large pieces in the manner of eggplant.

4. Stage

The tambourine dance is over. We mix the vegetables, dress them with two teaspoons of lean oil and two teaspoons of 5% vinegar - wine, apple or white balsamic vinegar, as I have. We chop the garlic as finely as possible - a quarter of a clove is enough for us, then its flavor is present, but not dominant. You put it to taste.
