The Eggplant Everyone Goes Crazy For! Easy and delicious eggplant recipe

1. Prepare the eggplants: Cut them into slices or sticks, sprinkle with salt, and let sit for 15 minutes to release excess water.

2. Drain and roast: Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Bake the eggplant slices until cooked through, then mash them with a fork.

3. Chop the extras: Finely chop the garlic, green olives, and parsley.

4. Make the mix: Soak the bread in milk, squeeze out excess liquid, and mix it with the chopped olives, parsley, and eggs. Add black pepper, paprika, herbs, and finally the mashed eggplant.

5. Cook: Scoop some of the mixture with a spoon and place it in a hot pan with olive oil. Fry until golden on both sides.

6. Serve: Drain on paper towels and serve hot — even better with a fresh yogurt sauce!

Perfect as an appetizer or a tasty side dish — these win everyone over from the very first bite!
