INGREDIENTS

2 cups Yogurt
3 medium Eggplant ; sliced 1/2 inch thick
1/2 cup Oil
1 medium Onion ; diced
1/2 cup Tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
1/4 cup green pepper ; chopped
1/4 cup Water
6 cloves garlic ; chopped
Mint ; fresh or dried

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Brush egggplant with oil and broil or roast til brown (see my Eggplant Parmiagiana recipe for best way to do this--involves microwaving first then roasting.)

2. Brown onion til light brown. Add cooked eggplant, 1 tsp salt, tomato sauce, pepper, green pepper and water.

3. Cook slowly, uncovered, until eggplant is tender (10-15 minutes), adding more water if necessary but evaporating it down so the sauce is thick when the eggplant is cooked..

4. In a bowl, combine yogurt, garlic and salt to taste (chaka)

To serve, spread 1/2 of chaka on a platter. Arrange eggplant and top, then top with remaining chaka. Sprinkle remaining sauce over that and sprinkle with mint.
