Description

Ingredients
- Eggplants - 2 pieces
- Natural Yogurt - 1 can
- Garlic - 1 clove
- Cilantro - to taste
- Meyer Lemon Juice - 1 tablespoon
- Olive Oil - ½ spoons
- Vegetable Oil - to taste
- Ground Black Pepper - to taste

Step by Step guide
Step 1
Wash the eggplants and pat them dry with a towel. Slice them into rounds.
Step 2
Place the grill pan over medium heat, then brush it with vegetable oil using a brush.
Step 3
Place the slices of eggplant on the grill pan. Sear the eggplants on both sides. After a while, taste them and cook the vegetables to your desired doneness. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil, which is a good thing.
Step 4
While the vegetables are cooling, prepare the sauce. Pour a jar of yogurt into a bowl. Squeeze in a clove of garlic using a garlic press. Finely chop some cilantro separately.
Step 5
Place the herbs in a bowl. Then add a teaspoon of lemon juice and half a tablespoon of olive oil. Mix well.
Step 6
Next, add the cooled eggplants to the bowl with cilantro. Gently mix, season with salt and pepper. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Step 7
The salad pairs well with fresh bread, as well as with fish, meat, and chicken.
