Eggplant Dish with Chickpeas
Insides of the eggplants from Stuffed Eggplants with Beef (4 small eggplants)
1 medium onion, sliced
2 tbsp chickpeas, in can
2 tbsp red pepper paste
1 tbsp crushed tomato, in can
60 ml extra virgin olive oil
50 ml hot water

Sauce:
1/2 cup yogurt
1 clove garlic, smashed with salt

Sautee the onion with olive oil until softened in a small cooking pot. Then add the rest of the ingredients. Cover the lid, cook on low heat until the eggplants are done.

Serve it with the yogurt sauce at room temperature. This is a surprisingly delicious dish:)
