Baked Eggplant Yogurt Salad Recipe
Summer means having answers such as eggplant and yogurt salad to the question of what should I cook today? And when eggplant and yogurt becomes together it's just legend. Eggplant salad with yogurt is the best example to those legendary recipes.
And today in this recipe I found another way to cook eggplant. Instead of roasting it on fire I chopped and baked it with a little oil. Adding a different flavour with roasted sesame seeds is also a good idea for the recipe. You can use it for all the yogurt salad recipes. With its smell and tangible consistency within all other smooth ingredients, it makes a difference.
I baked eggplants, but you can sautee them with the same amount of oil in a pan also. Consistency will not change a lot and as it is cooked at a higher temperature and caramelized a little bit it may be even a little bit more delicious.
