Ingredients
- 20 small eggplants
- 1 bunch parsley, finely chopped
- 4-5 medium carrots, finely chopped in a blender
- 1 head garlic, finely minced in a blender
- 30 celery stalks with long stems
- Salt
- Olive oil
- 100 g vinegar
Instructions
- Wash the eggplants thoroughly and make a lengthwise incision in each.
- In a pot, add the eggplants, cover with water, add salt and vinegar, and boil them gently until tender but not mushy. Drain and let cool in a colander.
- In the same water, boil the celery stalks until slightly softened but still firm.
- In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, carrots, and parsley. Add a pinch of salt and mix well.
- Fill each eggplant with 2 teaspoons of the carrot-garlic-parsley mixture and secure it by tying it with a celery stalk. If needed, use a second stalk to ensure it is tightly bound.
- Place the stuffed eggplants in a sterilized jar, arranging them neatly. Cover completely with olive oil to preserve.
