Great party food and super easy and quick to make. Try out this Romanian aubergine/eggplant
spread, it's delicious.
Romanian Aubergine Spread Recipe:
INGREDIENTS:
3 large aubergines / eggplants
2 onions
200ml mayonnaise
Salt
Ground black pepper
DIRECTIONS:
Bake the aubergines with skin on, in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for around 1 hour, or
until the skin is hard and crisp.
Whilst the aubergines are baking, finely dice the onion and leave in a deep bowl.
Remove the aubergines from the oven into a colander and peel the skin, then leave them for 30 minutes, to drain the water. You can press them with a potato masher whilst they are still warm. After the
water drain, transfer them onto a chopping board and finely dice them. They will be soft, so
very easy to cut, you essentially want to have them as mushy as possible. Transfer the aubergines
in the bowl with the onion, add mayonnaise, salt and pepper and mix well to incorporate
everything. Check if it needs more salt or pepper and if not, allow the spread to chill in the
fridge for min. 1 hour.
They are best served cold on a slice of bread, with tomatoes.
