Eggplant Slices in Garlic Marinade
Author: 
Recipe type: Salad
 
Eggplants- you either like or dislike them but this recipe is simply irresistible!
Ingredients
  • 2 eggplants
  • 4-5 Garlic Cloves – Minced
  • 1 Cup water
  • 2 tsp chopped dill
Instructions
  1. Slice the eggplants into 1cm (1/2 inch) slices and place on a surface covered with paper towels, in one layer.
  2. Sprinkle some salt over the slices and let stand for about 15-20 minutes.
  3. After 20 minutes, use additional paper towels to absorb all the juices that came out of the slices. Simply pat the slices with the paper towels until they’re dry.
  4. Preheat a frying pan to medium-high heat with 1cm deep vegetable oil in it.
  5. Place slices in oil and let fry until the bottom is nice and brown. Flip and do the same with the other side. Add oil if necessary.
  6. After the eggplants are all fried, prepare the marinade. In a medium bowl, mix together the dill, minced garlic and water.
  7. Start layering the fried slices in a plastic container. Layer the first layer and using a tablespoon drizzle some of the garlic marinade. Make sure the layer is covered (about 1-2 tablespoons per layer).
  8. Keep on with the same process for the other layers. It doesn’t have to be too precise as afterwards the eggplants will still have their juices to mix with the marinade so you can’t go wrong.
  9. Seal the container and place in the fridge for about 2 hours before serving and always keep refrigerated.
