In Turkish cuisine eggplant is used in various ways. There are a couple things to be careful about when cooking with eggplants. This is a perfect Mediterranean summer recipe with olive oil, garlic, and eggplant. Saute onions, garlic, and eggplant with olive oil on medium heat for 15 minutes. Add tomato/pepper paste, stir for 1-2 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients except parsley. Cover and cook on low for 40-45 minutes. Sprinkle parsley on top a minute or two before you turn it off.
