Recipe Description

Eggplant with Yogurt and Dill is a recipe I learned from a friend of mine who was shocked when I told her I wasn’t the biggest eggplant fan. “You simply haven’t found the right recipes yet” she scolded me! And you know what? She was right. She taught me how to make this amazing dish and I haven’t looked back since.

Start this by roasting eggplant, shallots, garlic cloves in the oven. Towards the end of the cooking time, add walnuts. To bring this dish together, squeeze the garlic and shallots from their skins. Chop and mix with the eggplant, nuts, yogurt and dill. Season to taste and enjoy!

To make Eggplant with Yogurt and Dill, you will need the following ingredients:
