Cut the eggplants into 1/4" thick slices.
Soak the eggplant slices in salty water (1/2 teaspoon salt per cup of water) for
at least 30 minutes - longer the better.
In the mean time, chop the cubannelle peppers and
the tomatoes.
Sautee the peppers in olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes
and the sliced garlic cloves. Bring the sauce to a boil, reduce the
heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
Dry the eggplant slices on a paper towel - you
must do this well to avoid splattering of oil during frying.
Heat the canola oil in a stainless steel pan. You
can add some olive oil for flavor. The oil in the pan should be about 1/2" deep.

Deep fry the egg-plant slices until both sides are golden
brown.

Make a layer of fried egg-plant slices in the serving
plate as shown above. Spoon some of the tomato-pepper sauce on the egg-plant
slices as shown below. Continue with alternating layers of egg-plant
slices and the tomato sauce.

Serve at room temperature.
