Except for having eggplant as it's main ingredient, I can find no reason why this dish is labeled "Moroccan." I'd say it's more of a riff on an Italian ratatouille or caponata. The recipe comes from a couple who once had a summer home down the lane from my grandparents' house. Richard Maloy and Tucker Bobst swooped into our hearts and will forever be remembered for their colorful tales of travel, celebrities and their many years of adventures together, as well as this delicious if not authentic dish.
