I live on a small island and so no takeout shops. No matter, I simply roasted the veggies in a 400 degree oven - cut the peppers in half, used red onions cut in fourths, Asian eggplants cut in half the long way- basted it all with olive oil and sprinkled with salt. After the veggies were soft, I cut them into bite size pieces, sauteed the onion and garlic, added the veggies plus a large can of whole Italian tomatoes, simmered on a very low flame an hour. Seasoned with Herbes de Provence.
