This recipe is from the West African Region of Ghana. Adapted from Traditional African Cooking. I bet this would be a tasty vegetarian dish if you omitted the beef.

1 medium onion (finely chopped)
1 large tomato (finely chopped)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper (to taste)
Directions:
1. Soak the diced eggplant in salted water. Heat oil in pan and brown the onion.
2. Add meat, salt, pepper and coriander.
3. Saute for 10 minutes.
4. Stir in peppers, tomatoes and squash.
5. Drain the eggplant and stir into mixture.
6. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
