To make the conversation here delicious again, here is another recipe for karnıyarık, which is one of my favourite dishes.

Karnıyarık(Slashed Eggplant):
Karnıyarık

Ingredients
------------
Eggplant 6 medium size
Oil 3 ½ tablespoons
Ground Meat 1 ¼ cups

Onions 3 large size
Green Pepper 3 medium size
Garlic 5 cloves

Parsley 2/3 bunch
Salt 2 teaspoons
Black Pepper ½ teaspoon
Water ¾ cup + 1 ½ teaspoons

Instructions - 6 servings

Pare eggplants in strips. Remove stems. Brown in oil lightly for 15 minutes turning all round. Remove from pan reserving oil.Arrange in a baking dish side by side. Split lengthwise leaving 2 ½ cm (1 inch) long space from both ends, make holes in center with back of a tablespoon. Add ground meat and finely chopped onions to oil; stir.

Brown for 8-10 minutes or until meat is crumbly; drain. Stir in diced tomatoes and 1 diced pepper reserving one tomatoes and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove from heat. Stir in minced garlic and parsley.
