Preparation
Preparation:
Boil the eggs until semi-soft (approx. 7 minutes)
Step 1: Prepare the eggplants
Partially peel the aubergines with a vegetable peeler so that stripes appear along the length of the skin
Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise. Place one half of an eggplant on the cutting board and cut slices about 2 cm thick
Place the eggplant slices on a rack and sprinkle with a generous amount of coarse salt. Let them rest for about 45 minutes. This removes the moisture from the eggplant, making it less bitter and absorbing less oil during frying.
Rinse the eggplants under running water to remove the coarse salt and let them dry for about 10 minutes
Mix the flour and cornmeal. Bread the eggplants on both sides with the mixture and shake them so that a thin layer of coating remains.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan and fry the aubergines for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown, then place on kitchen paper.
Step 2: Prepare the salad
Cut the tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and parsley
Mix with the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper
Step 3: Prepare the tahini sauce
Stir the tahini paste, water, lemon juice and pressed garlic into a thick sauce. Feel free to add more water if necessary.
Season with salt and pepper
Step 4: Prepare the sabich
Take a fluffy pita and cut off a small piece from the edge. Cut it open and spread with hummus and a few drops of harissa.
Place the eggplant slices, egg, chopped salad, amba and tahini on top
Garnish with more tahini, amba and parsley
