A smoky bulgur pilaf with charred eggplant simmered in an onion and tomato sauce, finished with garlic yogurt. It is a hearty, budget-friendly choice for an everyday meal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Char the eggplant

20 min

Char the eggplants directly over a flame or in the oven until the skins are completely blackened and the flesh is soft. Peel and roughly chop them.

2

Sauté the onion

5 min

Sauté the finely chopped onion in cooking oil until lightly golden.

3

Add the tomato and eggplant

5 min

Add the grated tomato and charred eggplant, then cook for a few minutes.

4

Cook with the bulgur

15 min

Add the rinsed bulgur, hot water and salt. Cook over low heat until the water has been absorbed.

5

Serve with yogurt

5 min

Remove from the heat and let the pilaf rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle the garlic yogurt over it and serve.

Reminder

Important: When charring the eggplant, wait until the skin is completely blackened. If you remove it before the flesh softens, it may taste bitter. Allergen: yogurt is a dairy product; anyone with a milk allergy should take care.
