Really refreshing.

Another weekend challenge from Cookpad Indonesia. They wanted us to cook something with maximum budget 15.000 IDR (~1 USD). I only used some leftover ingredients that I have.

Eggplants tend to absorb a lot of oil and become very greasy so I tested this healthier alternative to fried eggplants

I have mentioned before that I do love Eggplants I made this dip that I think you might enjoy. The Greek cuisine has many different types of Appetizers besides Tzatziki which is the top contender of the bunch. Just a small fact about the Eggplant which is considered a berry, just like the watermelon, tomato, and the blueberry, and yet it is considered a vegetable in the Culinary world, what an interesting fact.This is such a scrumptious recipe for the summer and so easy to make. It is a great dip to add too your menu if your having a summer party.Oh!! I will be posting another Appetizer that involves Shrimps very soon; :)

My favorite!

This spin on Italian 'melanzane alla Parmigiana' is quick to prepare and makes a deliciously creamy, veggie bake - adapted from: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/aubergine-rolls-spinach-ricotta?utm_source=app

Hiiii, just got back from my Dutch lesson…Yes, I have been taking Dutch lessons for a year on and off. Trying to learn a language that is more difficult than the Greek language!! If your a native English speaker it’s very confusing. For example let’s say you go to the supermarket and your at the register to pay, instead of 51.00 euros which is the total amount you see, they tell you the amount is 15.00 euros, they switch the numbers around….I still can’t understand why this is done. 🙂 But I have to admit I have a super great teacher who talks slowly and I can understand her and she has helped me so I am able to understand what I’m reading 🙂 at least most of the time and I can also write a bit, but talking Uxxxxxx!!!…That’s a whole different story. 🙂 I also have my Dutch friends who have been super supportive and try to talk to me in Dutch but then for some reason the conversation quickly turns into English..hehehe (back to the recipe) 🙂One of the first things my mom gave me before I got married was a Greek Cookbook from a Greek Chef from back in the 60’s. When I started going through the Cookbook I noticed that it had some wonderful recipes and colorful pictures, at the time I thought to myself how so far ahead of his time he was for a Greek Chef. (When we first moved to the Netherlands the first thing I packed was this cookbook just love it) The first recipe I tried from his cookbook, and mind you I was barely speaking, writing or reading Greek at the time

This is the first recipe I write here, so any kind of feedback is welcome :)This is a recipe that I have eaten at home sometimes and that I looked forward to learn.It's also suitable for vegetarians just by removing the mince meat and adding more vegetables.

The amount of butter/ghee used is based on the size of the eggplants/aubergine. Low carb

I love eggplants, when i was little i would enjoy eating these in any meal starting from breakfast to dinner. When i got married ,hubby doesnt like it much so i dont cook it often but when i do i go bonkers😂 and today this was my dinner, i enjoyed it thoroughly without any interruptions while watching TV. Had best evening as i was all lost eating my fav food😂 #mycookbook
