Hello new friend!

Escalivada is a traditional Catalan food made with roasted peppers, aubergine, onions and some times can include tomatoes. It's commonly eaten as a side or as a dish itself, usually on a loaf of bread with rubbed tomato and olive oil.

The word "escalivada" comes from the verb "escalivar", which in Catalan means the way of cooking it slowly on embers for a char-grilled result. Nowadays, many people at home cook it in the oven instead. It's often accompanied with salted anchovies.
