Add garlic a few minutes into this (whenever it's chopped up :-)

When eggplant is almost done, add red pepper cubes and cook a few more minutes.

Sausage And Peppers

I cooked sweet (not hot) sausage thoroughly. Completely drained off all the grease, then I added the olive oil and peppers. I added the onions later since they don't take as long to cook. I used some leftover spaghetti sauce I had instead of tomato paste. I didn't add fennel seeds since I didn't have any. Even though I played with the recipe, it was absolutely delicious. I think it's an easy recipe that will accept lots of variations according to your taste and what ingredients you have on hand. The wine is a must!
