  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place bell peppers, eggplants, and chili pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-35 minutes, until the skins are charred and blistered.
  2. Place the roasted vegetables in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let steam for 10 minutes. Peel and chop the vegetables.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil. Add onion and garlic, sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the chopped roasted vegetables to the skillet. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Season with salt, pepper, and red wine vinegar. Blend until smooth using a food processor or blender. Let cool before serving.
