Eggplants with eggs, Lefkada salami and sumac

Eggplants are a great side dish with ouzo, tsipouro, or wine.

Adding Lefkada Salami with eggplants and eggs creates a perfect summer recipe.

Materials for four servings:

Two medium eggplants, diced
One small onion, chopped
1 tsp. tomato paste
Two cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp. sumac
1 tsp. paprika sweet
Two medium tomatoes, grated
Four eggs
100 ml extra virgin olive oil
Eight very thin slices of Lefkada salami
fresh thyme leaves
afrina salt, black pepper

Procedure

Step 1

Wash the eggplants, remove the stem and cut them into small 2x2 cm squares. Pour 80 ml of olive oil into a large pan and sauté them over medium heat for 6-7 minutes until they wilt.

Step 2

Then add the onion, tomato paste, garlic, sumac and paprika and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Once the eggplants are soft, add the grated tomato and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 3

Finally, add the four eggs to the pan and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add salt, pepper and thyme, sprinkle with the remaining olive oil, garnish with the salami slices and serve.
