Notes
The new recipe uses a variety of vegetables including eggplant, bell peppers, and tomatoes, and incorporates a slow-cooking method to enhance the flavors. The original recipe was simplified and lacked the depth of flavor that comes from using a diverse range of vegetables and a longer cooking time.
