Eggplants with Plums
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. We only need three ingredients—plums, eggplant, and pepper. We'll add spices to brighten the dish. This appetizer isn't like anything else, but trust me—try it once and you'll make it often. It's important to choose plums that are firm and ripe. We use bell pepper, sweet, and we'll also add a little dried garlic and salt. You can serve the appetizer on its own or as a side dish. Be sure to try it. Serve the appetizer at the table.
