Implementation

  1. Wash the aubergines and cut them into small slices and the zucchini into cubes.
  2. Leave the vegetables for 10 minutes in a bowl of water and then squeeze them well with your hands to drain.
  3. Heat the olive oil and brown the onion for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, the aubergines, the zucchini and let them sauté for 5 minutes.
  4. Put the tomatoes, water and salt and pepper in the pot and boil the sauce for 10 minutes.
  5. Finally add the rice and parsley and mix. Simmer the food on low heat, without a lid, for 10 minutes, until the rice absorbs all the liquid and remains grainy.
  6. When you remove from the heat, cover the pilaf with a towel and let it stand for 5 minutes. Serve with cheese and yogurt dip.
