Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Roasted Baby Eggplant, Tomato, and Zucchini Medley.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a sizzling 450°F (230°C) and prepare a rimmed baking sheet lined with aluminum foil for effortless cleanup.
Step 2
Next, take your cubed baby eggplants and place them in a colander set over a large bowl.
Step 3
Generously sprinkle salt over the eggplants, allowing them to sit for 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
Step 4
Meanwhile, in a separate large bowl, combine the vibrant cubed tomatoes, zucchini, onion, and peeled garlic.
Step 5
Drizzle with olive oil and toss until everything is beautifully coated, then season with salt and freshly ground pepper to your liking.
Step 6
After the 30 minutes have passed, rinse the salted eggplants under cold water to wash away the salt, then gently pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 7
Add the eggplants to the bowl with the tomato mixture and stir to combine, adding more olive oil if necessary to ensure a luscious coating.
Step 8
Spread the colorful vegetable medley evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and have developed a delightful caramelization.
Step 9
Enjoy the aroma as it fills your kitchen, a prelude to the delicious dish that awaits!.
