Baqlajon qovurdoq (Eggplant stew)


"Baqlajon qovurdoq" is rich in taste, if you like eggplant, then this meal is just for you:) I love it! You can eat it as cool and as hot, as cool it is like nourishing salad.
Ingredients:
70 gr of oil
300 gr of meat, cut in medium sized cubes
2 onions, peeled and sliced
2 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1 medium capsicum, chopped
4 eggplant, peeled and cut in big cubes
Salt to taste
1 tbsp of ground coriander
Some fresh chopped coriander or any your favorite green for sprinkling
Heat up oil, put in meat and fry until golden brown, then add in onions, continue frying until golden color, add in chopped tomato and capsicum, fry until oil separates out. Then add in eggplant and fry stirring occasionally for 10 min. Don't stir hard or yo will mash eggplant. Add in salt and ground coriander, reduce the heat on low and cover the kid. Cook until eggplant is soft. Take from the heat, serve and sprinkle some green on top. Enjoy this delicious meal with fresh baked "non" (bread) and a hot green tea:)
Yoqimli ishtaha!!!
