After half an hour, it will need to be drained and you can already start cooking.

  7. Tomatoes are similarly, only wash, dry, cut with the peel of cubes of the same size as sweet pepper.
  8. The head of the bow - we will free from the shell, also cut into cubes. As the vegetables are prepared, we put them in a multicooker bowl.
  9. On top - we trimmed with freshly chopped pepper, seasoning, salt.
  10. After the actions done, pour the oil (sunflower, olives, corn - to choose from), and also do not forget to put a spoonful of tomato paste. Try it before adding to vegetables, it should not be bitter and be too sour, since all efforts can easily cross out only one ingredient. Choose a quality product.
  11. If everything was done correctly, then you should get an almost complete bowl. This is normal, nothing should be postponed as soon as the cooking process starts, the vegetables will be a little soil and “sit down”.
  12. It will not take about 7 to 10 minutes to prepare all the ingredients, if the eggplant took a modern variety, not bitter. Well, only half an hour is allotted for cooking this dish. We exhibit the “stew” mode, time, lower the lid, “start”. We trust everything else with a slow cooker, she will successfully cope with the task.
  13. After 10 minutes, you can throw off the lid to carefully mix everything, but if you do not want to interfere in the cooking process, everything will be fine and without this action.
