Your crocheted eggplant is beautiful . I am from Egypt where we have three kinds of eggplant , the big “almost round “one,and the much smaller long kind which grows in two colours ,dark purple and white .We cook the white ones (and also the thin purple ones )stuffed with rice and parsley ,dill, green peppermint and chopped tomatoes.
Here is a very easy and delicious Egyptian eggplant-salad recipe for your husband (and everybody else) to try :
Fried eggplants with garlic and vinegar
Peel the eggplants and cut them into rather thin big slices .leave them for a while in a bowl of water with some salt.
heat some oil in a frying pan ,squeeze the eggplant slices between your two palms to remove the excess water .Fry them until they become golden brown. Put them in layers with a little bit of salt in a deep dish .
Chop as much garlic as you like finely ,and fry it in a small saucepan using a very little bit of the remaining eggplant-frying oil .
Keep the vinegar ready at hand ,and just when the garlic becomes golden brown ,turn off the fire ,and pour some vinegar over it ,turn the mixture quickly with a spoon and pour it while it is still hot over the fried eggplants. Leave them for some time to cool and to get the taste of the garlic & vinegar sauce .
This dish keeps well in the refrigerator for some days ,and makes a nice snack eaten with bread.
