    The Diverse Israeli Table - Recipes of the Maghreb

    List of Ingredients




    12 baby eggplants, with stems intact
    3 cups red wine vinegar
    1 cup olive oil
    8 cloves garlic, chopped finely
    1 1/2 Tbsp. each salt and ground cumin
    2 - 3 dried red chili peppers
    1/2 tsp. oregano
    black pepper to taste

    Recipe



    Make a 1" (2 1/2 cm) slit in each eggplant. Place the eggplants in a saucepan with a large amount of lightly salted boiling water and cook until just tender (about 10-12 minutes). Drain, cool and transfer the eggplants to a large crock or jar.

    In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients with about 4 cups of water. Pour this mixture over the eggplants. If necessary, add water so that the eggplants are covered. Cover the container tightly and let stand at room temperature for 3-4 days. To serve, drain and serve whole.
