KASHK-E-BADEMJAN IRANIAN EGGLPLANT DIP



Kashk-E-Bademjan Iranian Egglplant Dip image

This is one of my favorite Iranian foods! My grandma used to make it for me and I always have to order it when I go to an Iranian restaurant. If you do not wish to fry the eggplant, you can prepare it in the oven. Directions for this method are given at the end of the recipe. You can use any eggplant for this dish; however, Chinese eggplants resemble the taste of Persian eggplants. If you use Chinese eggplants, double the amount of eggplants stated in the recipe. Kashk can be found at most Middle Eastern supermarkets. Sour cream will suffice, but it definitely will not be the same!

  • Season eggplant slices evenly with 1 tablespoon salt, and let stand, allowing excess water to drain, at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. Pat slices dry with paper towels. Heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium. Working in batches if necessary, add eggplant slices to skillet, and cook until golden brown on both sides and very soft, about 10 minutes per side. Remove eggplant slices from skillet, and transfer to a plate lined with a single layer of paper towels to absorb excess oil. Transfer cooked eggplant slices to a bowl; mash with a fork until mostly smooth.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a smaller skillet over medium. Add onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned (do not caramelize), 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic, and cook, stirring often, until garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add turmeric, and reduce heat to low; cook, stirring constantly, until onion mixture is coated with turmeric, about 30 seconds. Add mashed eggplant to onion mixture, and stir to mix thoroughly. Add 2 cups kashk to eggplant mixture, and stir until well combined. Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook eggplant mixture over low, stirring often, until mixture just begins to simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and transfer mixture to a serving dish.
  • Combine 1 teaspoon hot water and remaining 2 tablespoons kashk in a small bowl, stirring well to dilute slightly; set aside. Stir together saffron and remaining 1 teaspoon hot water in a separate bowl until well combined; set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a small skillet over high. Add dried mint to hot oil, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 45 seconds, being careful not to burn mint. Pour hot mint mixture over prepared kashke bademjan. Add diluted kashk around mint mixture, and drizzle saffron drops on diluted kashk. Serve with toasted barbari or lavash.

  • First peel the eggplants and cut them in half. Sprinkle the eggplants with salt. This will make the extra water (juice) of the eggplants emerge out of it. Because of this juice the eggplants might taste bitter. So it’s a good idea to wash and dry them.
  • Use some oil to fry the eggplants. Using a lower flame of gas burner, will help the eggplants be cooked completely.
  • Now, put the eggplants in a bowl. Use a masher to mash them. The texture of the eggplants must remain, so neither mash them strongly, nor use an electric masher.
  • Dice or grate the onion and then fry then fry it until it looks golden. Add the garlic, pepper and turmeric and stir fry them for a short while, then add the mashed eggplants and once again stir fry them.
