The Mallorcan vegetable bake: aubergine, potato and red pepper fried separately in olive oil, layered in a dish and covered with a slow tomato sauce.
Tumbet is the island's summer glut dish, made when aubergines, peppers and tomatoes all arrive at once. Every element is fried separately in olive oil so each keeps its texture, then layered and finished under a slow tomato sauce. It is served as a vegetable course, as a side to grilled pork loin, or under a fried egg, and it is one of the few Mallorcan classics that is vegan by default. Palma kitchens run it from June through to the end of the tomato season.
