Directions
Traditional Eggplant Boats, The Iman fainted! And so will you when the aroma fills your kitchen Suitable for vegetarians and vegans From Ethnic Cuisine Add in 2 hours standing, cooling, and chilling time , Off memory I think my mother translation of Imam Bayildi is Imam is a prayer leaders (like Priest) and Bayildi is slang for fainted I can’t remember the stories, but I think it had something to do with the prayer leaders daughter making this dish for first time, the prayer leader tasted it and he fainted with delight, something I call a food-gasim The recipe was easy to make and delicious, I served it Luke warm because I didn’t read the whole directions before starting it I think it could be eaten hot or cold, but the flavour enhances when eaten cold and it’s a perfect summer dish Thank you for posting the recipe Julie B’s Hive
