There are many traditional Greek recipes for vegetables and rice as a main course. This simple Greek recipe, made with eggplant and seasoned with fresh herbs, makes a delicious vegetarian main course, but can easily be served as a Greek meze and as a side dish to simple grilled or pan-seared meat or fish. Extra virgin Greek olive oil brings everything together and makes this unique Greek island plant-based specialty very craveable!
Ingredients:
1/4 to 1 cup / 60 to 240 ml extra-virgin Greek olive oil
2 medium red onions finely chopped
2 garlic cloves minced
2 medium eggplants trimmed and cut into ½ inch / 12mm chunks
1/2 cup/100 g long-grain rice such as Greek nihaki or basmati or Carolina, a medium-grain variety
2 cups/350 g peeled seeded, and finely chopped tomatoes
½ cup chios souma tsipouro, or dry white wine
2 cups/450 ml water
Salt and pepper
3 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
