Servings: 6
Preheat oven to 400°F.

Served hot, at room
temperature, or chilled, this
versatile vegetable mélange
shows up frequently on
Catalan menus. We love to use
Unió, a fragrant, peppery oil
made from the region's
arbequina olives, both for
cooking this dish and for
drizzling over it.

3 large red bell peppers
3 small Italian eggplants,

Place whole peppers in one third of an oiled, large
1-inch-deep baking pan. Brush cut sides of eggplants
with 1/2 tablespoon oil and arrange next to peppers in
pan. Toss onion with 1 tablespoon oil and spread in
remaining third of pan.

halved lenghwise (1 lb total)
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin
olive oil

1 large sweet onion, halved
through root end and cut into
1/2-inch wedges
Sea salt

Roast vegetables, turning peppers occasionally, until
skins of peppers blister on all sides, about 40 minutes.
Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover, and let steam 10
minutes. Continue roasting eggplants and onion until
tender and browned, 20 to 30 minutes more, and keep
warm, covered.
