Accordion eggplants are a surprising dish made with few ingredients. The eggplants are cut in an accordion style, seasoned with parsley, garlic, oil and salt, then baked and stuffed with tomato and cheese.

Method

  1. Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise.
  2. Make accordion cuts: cut slits crosswise, not cutting all the way through, using chopsticks or a guide to ensure even depth.
  3. Place the eggplant halves on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil.
  4. In a small bowl, mix chopped parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, and salt.
  5. Brush or spoon the mixture into the slits of the eggplants.
  6. Bake at 200°C (static oven) for 20–25 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven; the slits will have opened up.
  8. Alternate slices of tomato and cheese into the slits (one tomato, one cheese, etc.).
  9. Return to the oven and bake at 200°C static for another 25 minutes.
  10. Serve hot.
