Eggplant Salad with Dill and Garlic

4.6

(9)

Editor's note: This recipe was created by chef Einat Admony for an Israeli Passover menu.

This tangy salad is an interesting departure from baba ghanoush, and makes a terrific Passover starter when served with matzoh. You'll want to begin preparing it a day ahead, since it has to marinate overnight.
