Ingredients

2 medium-sized eggplants
Vegetable oil for frying
5 tablespoons sour cream (25% fat)
4 cloves garlic
Salt

Preparation

1
Wash the eggplants, cut them into thin slices, and sprinkle with salt.
2
If your eggplants are hot/bitter, put them under press for about half an hour; then drain off the liquid.
3
Fry the eggplant slices in a large skillet, or better in two skillets, because it takes some time. Fry each slice on both sides until golden-brown and translucent.
4
Place each batch on a paper towel in order to get rid of excess oil.
5
To prepare the dip, combine crushed garlic, sour cream, and 1/2 tsp salt, and slightly whisk the mix with a fork.
