🍆 I made the best ever eggplant and chickpea dish last night in the slow cooker function of the #InstantPot.
📖 The recipe is Macedonian Chickpeas, Eggplants and Tomatoes, from The Cooking of the Eastern Mediterranean, by #PaulaWolfert.
🍅 A few bits (onion, green capsicum, eggplants) are sauteed quickly then tomatoes, LOTS of parsley, greek oregano, bay leaves is added, then tomatoes. Simmered for 10 mins then mixed with chickpeas and slow cooked for 3 hours.
🌶️ The recipe also includes chillies, but I added the water used to swish around the blender after I pureed the fermented chillies. It was a perfect heat!
🍅 All from the garden except onion and chickpeas.
✅ The recipe punches above its weight!! Very special. Lots in the fridge for 'ron. 😋
