Roasted Eggplant Salad: ideal for dipping fresh bread

Eggplant is a vegetable that you either love or hate. I love her, but I have to say that sometimes it's hard for me to know what to do with her. Very recently, I shared a roasted green pepper salad (Hmiss), a typical Algerian dish, which I love and make very often. This is very similar, but it's made with eggplants.

This Roasted Eggplant Salad is accompanied by a good splash of quality extra virgin olive oil, a splash of lemon juice and last but not least, a good loaf of bread freshly out of the oven.

Ingredients you need to make this Eggplant Salad

To make this recipe, you need just a few ingredients, but a little bit of time to roast the vegetables.

• Eggplant: you need two eggplants
• Green bell pepper: a long green pepper or also called Italian pepper
• Garlic: you need 3 garlic cloves
• Olive oil: the best olive oil you have access to, you need 60 milliliters
• Parsley: parsley to decorate (optional)
• Lemon:: if you like it, you can add a splash of lemon juice (optional)
• Salt and pepper

How to make Roasted Eggplant Salad

Turn the oven on up and down heating mode (without fan) to 250º degrees.

Prick the eggplants with a knife on all sides to cook the inside. Wrap the garlic cloves unpeeled in aluminum foil. On a baking rack, put the eggplants, pepper and garlic. Bake for about 35–40 minutes, halfway through baking, turn the eggplants and peppers.

When you take the vegetables out of the oven, cover them with aluminum foil so that the eggplants cook well inside with the steam and let them rest for about 15 minutes (out of the oven).

Remove the skin from the eggplants and the green pepper (also its seeds) and peel the garlic. Now chop the vegetables, add the olive oil, salt and pepper to taste.

Garnish with fresh parsley, add a squeeze of lemon juice and serve with a loaf of bread.

Enjoy, Bismillah!

You can store this salad for about 4 days in the refrigerator. The next day it's even better. 🙂
