What do you think would happen if someone from the Mediterranean got together with someone from Mexico and created one sandwich? Today I wanted to create what I imagined what it would be like.
I have been in Mexico for almost six months and haven't seen eggplant all that much, but when I saw one the other day I grabbed it. I made what might resemble a ratatouille, with eggplant (or aubergine), zucchini, (or courgette), and tomatoes. I made some cutlets out of chickpeas and lentils which is what I usually have been using to make proteins. Being here in Mexico means that one must make use of the plentiful Roma tomatoes and avocados which seem to be at their finest right now. So I combined some of the flavors of the ingredients often used in the Mediterranean and Mexico. Here is what happened.
1 cup ground dried lentil
1 small carrot
1/2 onion diced finely
1 clove garlic minced
Salt to taste ( I used around 1 teaspoon)
Pinch of cumin
pinch of chili powder
1 medium eggplant
1 green pepper ( I used a problano )
4 tomatoes
1 small onion
2 or 3 cloves garlic minced
Slice the eggplant into very thin slices. For a better eggplant dish ( in my opinion), coat the eggplant in salt then let it sit for a while. I left it for around half an hour. After there will be juices. Squeeze out the juice thoroughly, then heat up a pan with some oil. Saute the onions and garlic, then add the peppers and eggplant, then the tomatoes at the end. Cover with a lid and let it simmer until everything is tender.
a hamburger is my favorite food.
Thanks for this I'm definitely going to try it 👍
That's great! Enjoy!

Though Sandwich, Chickpea Cutlets And Eggplant are my favorite food. But chikpea cutlets is more than other.

You're food photography is amazing, and what a great idea to blend the different cuisines together to make something that is uniquely your own. Not to mention it is Vegan which will appeal to so many.

I am always looking for new ideas to add new things to our diet. I can not believe how creative one needs to be when you spent a lifetime eating meat and you decide to stop. Thank you I will have to try this.
So delicious and so easy to make! I'm definitely going to try this one! Thanks!!
