Mediterranean Salad Recipes

Ingredients :

1 medium eggplant, about 500g, cut into 6mm (1/4 inch) slices

salt

1 tbsp olive oil

1 large red onion, sliced finely

1 clove garlic, crushed

1 tsp dried oregano leaves

1 red capsicum, seeded and sliced

1 green capsicum, seeded and sliced

3-4 medium tomatoes

1 tbsp capers

2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

ground black pepper

Method :

Sprinkle eggplant slices with salt. Set aside for 20 minutes. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan; add onion, garlic, oregano and capsicum, cover and cook over low heat - do not brown. Place tomatoes in heatproof bowl, pour boiling water over and leave for 2 minutes. Drain tomatoes and plunge them into cold water. Peel skins from tops downwards. Slice tomatoes and place in a large bowl. Add onion and capsicum mixture, and capers.

Rinse eggplant, pat dry with paper towel. Place under hot grill until slices are just turning brown; grill other side. Cut into pieces, add to tomato mixture. Sprinkle vinegar over vegetables; add pepper, toss well and refrigerate 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread, or as a topping for toast.

Note: Sliced zucchini or sliced mushrooms can be added to this recipe, if desired.
