How to cook eggplant in tomato for the winter
Pour the tomato into a wide-rimmed bowl and let it boil for 10 minutes. The tomato can be either fresh, made from red ripe tomatoes, or prepared from tomato paste diluted with water.
Add finely chopped hot pepper and garlic or onion to it. If desired, you can add both.
Then they go with: butter, sugar, salt and vinegar. Stir and, while the tomato sauce is boiling, cut the peppers into strips and eggplants into slices.
The thickness of the chopped vegetables should be approximately the same. This is necessary for even cooking. Look at these photos to see what size pieces I chose for myself.
Dip the vegetables into the tomato and simmer for 30 minutes, remembering to stir.

Before it cools completely, turn the workpiece over onto the lid and cover with a towel.
