Amazing I searched for an eggplant/chatzilim dish to accompany my falafel. Lo and behold, this recipe was just posted that day!!
So delicious even though I didn’t have Zaatar. (Silan refused to come out of the bottle, so I skipped that too.)
I also used dried minced garlic instead of fresh.

Fantastic! Really added Israeli flavor to our falafel supper!
