While the tomato sauce is cooking, you can start with the veggies. Heat the oil on a medium-high fire (take care, don`t burn it!) in a big-medium pan, add the garlics and fry first the potatoes, then the zuchinni, the eggplant and the red bell pepper. Add a pinch of salt every time you fry new veggies. Drain well all the veggies and in a baking dish distribute the layers, first at the bottom the potato, then the zuchinni, the eggplant, the red bell pepper and finally the tomato sauce. Bake It for 60 minutes 130º and serve. This is a summer dish, you can serve it at room temeperature or hot.
