Instructions

In a colander, place cubed eggplant and sprinkle with 2 tbsp (25 mL) of salt. Set a heavy plate on top of the eggplant and let rest for 1 hour to take bitterness out of the skin. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and drain. Pat dry with paper towels.

In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp (25 mL) of olive oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add eggplant and garlic and saute quickly until golden. Remove and place in a large oven-proof casserole.

In the skillet, saute remaining vegetables except the beans, tomatoes and tomato sauce, using additional olive oil as required for 5 minutes. Transfer vegetables to casserole.

In a large bowl, mix the tomatoes, stock, beans, tomato paste and seasonings until well combined. Add mixture to the vegetables in the casserole and stir until sauce is evenly distributed. Cover with foil and bake at 350° F (180° C) for 1 hour.
