Amarantha's Mountain of Nachos

for cooking:
a couple of onions
a couple of eggplant, or one really big one
a few zucchini
half a dozen large yellow chillies
as many hot chillies as you like
a large bag of mushrooms
one or two tomatoes

for layering:
corn chips
salsa
sour cream
grated cheese

Heat some oil in a large pot. Chop and add ingredients in the order
listed above. The eggplant especially should be chopped fairly thinly
(half a centimetre/quarter inch slices) and may need more oil added with
it. Once the tomatoes have been added to the pot it's pretty much ready
- a horrible-looking grey muck that smells and tastes great. Get a
plate, add a layer of corn chips, a few big serving spoons of vegies, a
layer of salsa, a layer of sour cream and lots of cheese. Eat with fork
and fingers.

Warning: this dish is deceptively large. I've had friends use a bread
and butter plate so as not to get too much and even then, when they'd
finished layering, they were alarmed at the amount of food they'd ended
