Pisto (Spanish Vegetable Stew)

🍳 How to Make It

  1. Prep the vegetables: Dice everything evenly. Salt the eggplant and let it sit for 15 minutes to remove bitterness, then rinse and pat dry.
  2. Sauté in stages:
    • Heat olive oil and cook onions and garlic until soft.
    • Add peppers and cook until tender.
    • Add eggplant and zucchini, sauté until lightly browned.
    • Stir in tomatoes, season with salt, pepper, and optional spices.
  3. Simmer: Cover and cook on low heat for 20–30 minutes until vegetables are soft and the sauce thickens.
  4. Serve: Top with a fried egg or Manchego cheese, and enjoy with crusty bread.
