This marinated eggplant makes an excellent side dish.

Recipe Directions

1. Dehydrate the eggplants for 6 to 8 hours. After dehydrating, soak them in a mix of olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and pressed garlic for 4 hours.

2. Put all the ingredients in a food process or Vitamix or other blender and process/blend until you like the look of it. If too thick, add water.

Bronwyn, it's the entire bulb. You buy a head of garlic, then break off the individual cloves.

D&Z, do you peel the eggplants?

Thanks, d&z. I live in Windsor, which is 3.5 hours' drive from Toronto. I grew up there and my family is there, so I'm in Toronto at least once a month. Maybe other GTA-ers (and beyond) will notice this and we can do a raw meetup sometime. :-D

Are you soak the eggplants before dehydrating them in order to remove the solanin in them?

yes, we eat it here in Bulgaria but I think the recipe is Turkish originally. I have eaten it in the non-raw option but I have to make it and try the raw one. It's yammy really

Is this recipe Bulgarian, BTW? I ate spectacular food in Bulgaria in 2006. I've seen other non-raw recipes for this dish, but there were peppers and also parsley in them. Have you tried this?

this sounds really tasty. Is the eggplant dried chopped or do you just dehydrate the entire thing?
