GRILLED EGGPLANT, PEPPERS AND ONIONS
The happy mix of eggplant, peppers and onions is found throughout the Mediterranean. Cooking the vegetables over hot coals adds a welcome smokiness, but even a stovetop grill gives a hint of smoky flavor, so don't fret if you can't grill outside. This salad is meant to be served at room temperature. Feel free to make it up to 2 hours ahead.

Steps:
- Prepare a bed of hot coals in a charcoal grill, or heat a stovetop grill to medium-high. Arrange eggplants, onions and peppers on a baking sheet. Paint vegetables lightly on both sides with olive oil.
- Working in batches, grill all vegetables on both sides until softened and lightly charred, about 5 to 6 minutes per side. When all vegetables are cooked, chop them into rough chunks and place in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and the vinegar. Season well with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Add capers and toss again.
- Transfer mixture to a serving dish and sprinkle with oregano and crushed red pepper. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Place peppers directly over a gas flame and cook, turning occasionally, until charred all over, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; cover with plastic wrap until cool enough to handle. Rub off charred skin with a paper towel; discard. Remove and discard seeds. Cut peppers into 1/4-inch strips.
- Meanwhile, heat 1/3 cup oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add eggplants, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt; stir to combine. Add 1/3 cup water. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally and adding more water if needed, until eggplants are very tender but still hold shape, 10 minutes. Stir in oregano; cook 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl; add peppers, remaining 1/3 cup oil, vinegar, parsley, and cheese. Let stand while cooking pasta.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta; cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup liquid, then drain. Toss pasta with eggplant mixture until fully coated (add pasta water if needed to moisten, 1/4 cup at a time). Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with parsley leaves, and serve.
SPICY ROASTED RED PEPPER AND EGGPLANT SOUP
This is one of my favorite winter soups. It's spicy and very flavorful, and makes an excellent side or appetizer soup. The most important thing when preparing it is to try not to lose the juice from the peppers when you roast them--it adds a lot of flavor to your soup! Also, all the spices at the end, including the lime juice, should be added to taste, a little at a time. The soup is fine without them, but I thought it needed something until I added them. Finally, if you are preparing this as a vegan recipe, just omit the cream garnish. Use scallions, and maybe a spoonful of olive paste instead to garnish!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425F/220°C.
- While the peppers and eggplant are roasting, chop your onions and fresh chili (if you are using a fresh chili). Throw away the seeds and pith of the chili, and remember to only use half. Set aside.
- Put the eggplant and the bell peppers on a baking tray. To prevent exploding, poke a few holes in the eggplant, and one small slit in each pepper, facing up (while the peppers cook, they will fill with juice, and you don't want it to leak out).
- Roast them in the oven for about 40 minutes, until the eggplant is soft. Allow to cool enough to touch.
- Carefully put the peppers in a bowl, saving as much juice as possible, and cut in half. Peel away and discard the skin, seeds and pith.
- Cut the eggplant in half, and use a spoon (a grapefruit spoon works amazing for this if you have one!) to scoop out the flesh into the bowl with the red pepper flesh.
- Put the olive oil in the soup pot on low heat, and add the onions. Cook until soft, but not browned.
- Add the hot chili or chili powder, and cook for few quick minutes.
- Add the eggplant, red peppers, thyme, and paprika, and stir.
- Add about three quarters of the stock (enough to cover the contents of the pot), and simmer for about 20 minutes.
- In a few batches, puree the soup in a blender until smooth (you need to use a second pot to keep the pureed and un-pureed soup separate).
- Add more stock to adjust the consistency if you need to.
- Add salt, black pepper, small amounts of oregano and coriander, and more of the other spices and thyme to taste. Add a small dash of lime juice as well.
- Serve hot with a spoonful or two of fresh cream on top, and a spoonful of chopped scallions.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Cook and stir the eggplant cubes until they begin to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the eggplant with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
- Heat 2 more tablespoons of oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, and cook and stir the onions just until they begin to soften, about 30 seconds. Stir in the garlic, and cook and stir an additional 30 seconds. Mix in the soy sauce, water, oyster sauce, chili garlic sauce, sugar, and black pepper, and stir to form a smooth sauce. Return the eggplant to the skillet, lower the heat, and allow the vegetables and sauce to simmer until the eggplant is tender and almost all the liquid has been absorbed, about 5 minutes. Drizzle sesame oil over the dish, and give one final brief stir to combine.
