INSTRUCTIONS
Spaghetti with Eggplant, Roasted Red Peppers and Poblano Chiles Cut the eggplant in 1/4-inch thick round slices, sprinkle with salt and let stand 40 minutes. Roast, seed, peel and cut the peppers and chilies into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Rinse the eggplant, squeeze dry and fry in olive oil until brown on all sides. Discard oil. Heat 2 to 3 Tbsp. olive oil in a large pan and cook onion and garlic until soft. Stir in the tomatoes and thyme sprigs and cook until they become soft and form a sauce. Stir in the peppers and eggplant, cover and simmer briefly to make sure that the vegetables are soft. Stir in parsley, season with salt and add a splash of vinegar to taste. Remove from heat, remove thyme sprigs and keep warm. Cook the pasta, drain thoroughly, toss with the sauce in the pan and serve hot.
