Heat the oven to 190 °C (375 °F). Prick the eggplant a few times with a fork. Put the peppers, eggplant and whole onion on a foil-lined tray.

Roast for 50-60 min, turning the peppers halfway, until the skins are blistered and the flesh is very soft.

Meanwhile, mix the flour, yeast and fine salt in a bowl. Add the water and 1 tbsp of the olive oil and stir into a sticky dough. Knead with wet hands for 4-5 min.

Cover the dough and leave it in a warm spot until doubled, 1-1 1/2 hours.

Move the hot vegetables to a bowl, cover with a plate and let them steam for 15 min.

Peel the peppers and remove the stems and seeds. Peel the eggplant and onion. Tear the peppers and eggplant into broad strips and cut the onion into thin strips. Season with flaky salt and 1 tbsp olive oil.

Raise the oven to 250 °C (480 °F) and put a baking sheet inside to heat for 20 min.

Oil a sheet of baking paper. Gently stretch the dough on it into a rectangle about 25 x 35 cm (10 x 14 in). If it springs back, cover it and rest 5-10 min, then stretch again.
