Servings: persons

1 red bell pepper (optional)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 onion, roughly chopped
1 large clove garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 small eggplant, skin on, diced
1 small yellow squash or zucchini, quartered lengthwise and then roughly chopped
1 teaspoon lemon thyme
1 ear sweet corn, cut off the cob
juice of one half lemon
3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled roughly
salt and pepper to taste

1
Using tongs, char the red pepper directly over the stove top flame. I set my pepper right on the burner; and turned as the pepper nicely charred. Remove from the stove top flame and place in a paper bag to cool while you prepare the vegetables.
2
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the onions and garlic and saute until they start to sweat. Add the crushed red pepper and stir for 1 minute. Add the eggplant and continue to saute - you want all the vegetables to be lightly and beautifully browned. Then add the squash. Continue to brown, and then add the thyme. After a little more browning, add the salt and pepper to taste. (Remember that the feta will add more saltiness.)
3
While the vegetables are sauteing, remove the charred skin from the red pepper, but allow a little of the char to remain on the pepper. Dice, and add to the vegetable mixture.
4
Add the lemon juice. Stir everything together.
5
Add the sweet corn, and immediately follow with the feta cheese. Stir the mixture very briefly to allow the cheese to melt slightly.
6
Serve heated or at room temperature - it's nice both ways. Serve with a nice bread and glass of white wine. This is a very satisfying meal for one person, and delicious for two with another small side dish.
