👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Cut eggplants in half lengthwise, then cut each half into thirds, creating 6 eggplant spears. Brush with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper, and place on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).

While eggplants roast, heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and bell pepper and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in chopped tomatoes, tomato sauce, chopped parsley, cinnamon, and red chili flakes (if using). Cook for 5-10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Remove eggplants from the oven. Carefully slice each spear vertically down the middle, being careful not to cut through the skin. Gently pry open the slits.
