Eggplant Satsivi

For every food lover and fan of Georgian cooking — you've got to make this! My husband adores all kinds of appetizers, sauces, and those zesty little "appetite boosters," so I do my best to keep things interesting and never let the dishes get boring. Last night I treated him to eggplant satsivi (eggplant in a spiced walnut sauce), and dinner was a huge hit. Highly recommend!

    1. Rinse the eggplant and cut it lengthwise or crosswise into slices at least ½ inch (1 cm) thick. 2. Rub the slices lightly with salt and let them sit for 20–30 minutes. 3. Chop the onion and fry it in vegetable oil until golden. 4. Put the garlic, chili, and walnuts in a blender and blitz to a paste. 5. Choose a vessel to make the satsivi in — a small saucepan works well. Add the blended paste and the fried onion, season with salt, and add your spices. Cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and saffron all round out the flavor beautifully. 6. Pour in the vegetable broth (or water), then add the vinegar and a little flour. 7. Stir gently and bring to a boil over the heat. 8. Meanwhile, fry the eggplant slices in oil on both sides until golden. Set them on a paper towel to blot up the excess oil. 9. Add the golden eggplant to the satsivi sauce. Stir in the chopped cilantro and garnish with pomegranate seeds. 10. Once the dish has cooled, chill it in the fridge for at least 30–40 minutes. You can serve eggplant satsivi as an appetizer or as a main. Experiment and wow your family with your kitchen skills! Enjoy!
