Ingredients

1 small eggplant (prepared see below)

1 small bell pepper

½ cup red onion

1 banana pepper

1 3.8oz can black olives

1 garlic clove

1-2 Roma tomatoes

4-5 Basil leaves

3 Mint leaves

Dash of curry powder

Dash or two of lemon juice

Dash of Balsamic vinegar

Salt & pepper to taste

Olive oil

Directions

1. Slice eggplant into round ¼ to ½ inch thickness sprinkle with salt to draw out moisture (wait 10-15 minutes, pat the drawn moisture off eggplant).

2. Drizzle slices with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast in oven at 200 degrees for aprox 20-30 minutes.

3. During the eggplant roasting, chop ingredients 2-7 into a relish like consistency (or use your food processor)

4. Place all veggies into bowl and add curry, lemon juice, vinegar and salt and pepper give it a good stir and place in a pan for roasting,drizzle with olive oil.

5. Remove eggplant from oven and turn up the heat to 375 degrees and place pan with chopped veggies in oven aprox. 5-10 minutes (this cooks fast because it’s so finely diced).

6. Dice your eggplant and add to roasting mixture as it comes out of the oven. Heap the mixture onto sliced open focaccia bread drizzle inside of top layer with olive oil.

7. Turn your broiler on and top roasted veggies with your brie cheese. Set your sandwich (opened) under the broiler to toast the inside of the bread as well as warm the brie.

Enjoy!
