(*. Something that induces forgetfulness of sorrow or eases pain)
When my son was 12 years old, he asked me whether I have this recipe written down. By the worried look of his eyes, I figured that the idea behind this question is: what if something happens to me and he is left with no knowledge of cooking his favorite eggplant!
Keeping in mind, that the unexpected happens, I hurried to put this recipe as one of the first.
Again, as most of my other recipes, this one has been modified from it's classic parent-version to fit the lifestyle of constant time deficit.
Slice the eggplant into circles and fry them in vegetable oil in a large pan. (If the circles are too large, cut them in half). Once the eggplants are ready (golden brown), put them on a paper towel to remove the excess oil.
Cut an onion in half and slice it very thin.
Next step, preparing the mix:
Combine the ground walnuts in a bowl with the minced garlic, add coriander powder, sappron and vinegar. Add 1/2 cup of water and mix well. Add salt and red ground pepper according to your taste. Make sure that the mix has a consistency of sour cream (add more water if needed).
Put fried eggplants on a large plate, add a layer of sliced onions, spread the mix on the top, and add finely chopped cilantro and pomegranate seeds.
Enjoy!
