I can say that I am a longtime eggplant fan. Even in times of shortage, we tried to bring them from the south and cook different delicious dishes. But who would have thought that people would come up with so many dishes from them!

In addition to the original taste, this wonderful vegetable is also useful. After all, it contains a large amount of potassium, antioxidants, fiber and vitamin B. And there are very few calories. So feel free to cook various delicacies from the blue ones (so lovingly nicknamed by the people) and do it.

Caviar, perhaps, takes the honorable first place in the popularity of dishes from this vegetable. Yes, and there are a lot of recipes, but today I want to offer you 9 delicious recipes eggplant caviar, so that you find the most suitable one for yourself.

I also recommend cooking delicious caviar from zucchini, and you can find recipes from the wonderful hostess Alina at this link: https://azbyka-vkysa.ru/kabachkovaya-ikra-na-zimu.html

Love spicy? Then pay attention to this recipe, but you can adjust the spiciness with the amount of hot pepper. For example, I like it spicier, so I put chili pepper in caviar with seeds and a little more than in the recipe. Spread such an appetizer on bread, and serve as a cold dish, and how delicious it is with potatoes! Don't be lazy, get ready.

Ingredients:

  • eggplant - 1 kg
  • onion- 400 gr.
  • tomatoes - 300 gr.
  • garlic - 4-5 cloves
  • hot peppers- 0.5 - 1 pc.
  • salt - 1 tsp
  • sugar - 2 tsp
  • ground coriander - 1/2 tsp
  • vinegar 9% - 2 tsp
  • vegetable oil - 100 ml.

I prefer caviar recipes in which each vegetable is separately fried. So let's do it, just cut them first.

Remove the skin from the eggplant. This is optional. I admit, I often cook with the skin on. And cut the vegetable into cubes.

Since we cut the vegetables into our preparation into slices, it is advisable to remove the peel from the tomato. To do this, we make an incision on top of the tomatoes crosswise, scald them with boiling water. And then throw the tomatoes into cold water. The peel after such SPA procedures is removed very easily. After that, cut the tomatoes into small pieces.

If you prefer to chop vegetables in a blender for caviar, then it is not necessary to remove the skin from tomatoes.

Grind onion, garlic and hot pepper. Since I am a lover of spicy dishes, I ventured to put 2 peppers, and even seeds.

Optionally, if you are afraid of a too spicy dish, remove the seeds from the chili pepper.

To give the caviar a special delicate taste, let's fry the vegetables. Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan and lightly fry the garlic (just a couple of minutes). Add the onion there and bring it to a transparent color.

We still put the eggplant in the pan, stir all the vegetables and fry over low heat until soft (15 minutes).

Well, now it's the turn of tomatoes and hot peppers. The smell is awesome though!

Add salt, sugar and coriander. We simmer all this beauty for 20-30 minutes over low heat.

After half an hour, the vegetables will acquire a beautiful golden color, sweat.

And a couple of minutes before the end of cooking, add vinegar. Let the whole mass boil, and you can put it in pre-sterilized jars. After that, we close the jars with boiled lids, turn them upside down, cover with something warm and leave to cool completely.

A simple recipe for eggplant caviar in a blender

This recipe is a bit different from the first one, thanks to carrots and sweet peppers. And after cooking, we grind all the vegetables with a blender. We get a delicious caviar of a delicate texture.

Ingredients:

  • eggplant - 1 kg
  • tomatoes - 500 gr.
  • carrots - 300 gr.
  • onion - 3 pcs.
  • bell pepper - 3 pcs.
  • garlic - 2 heads
  • salt - 1 tbsp. l.
  • pepper to taste
  • vegetable oil - 100 ml

You will need to prepare the jars in advance - wash them with soda and sterilize along with the lids.

I also remove the skin from eggplant in this recipe. We cut them into cubes. We clean the carrots and onions and also cut into cubes. Put onions in a pan with vegetable oil, and then carrots. Lightly fry, or rather stew for 5-7 minutes.

Add eggplant to these vegetables, mix and simmer for another 10 minutes.

During this time, prepare the filling of tomatoes, feathers and garlic. Grind everything with a blender, this is the most convenient way.

If you prefer to chop vegetables the old-fashioned way with a meat grinder - why not?

In tomatoes, the skin can not be removed, it will be safely crushed. Sweet peppers only need to be freed from seeds, cut into arbitrary pieces and also sent to a blender.

For spiciness, of course, add garlic. We will also clean it and grind it in a blender.

We mix all the crushed ingredients, we get a semi-liquid porridge. We pour it into the pan on the vegetables.

Stir all this gurgling mass, then salt and pepper.

If the tomatoes are not very juicy and the mass is thick, you can add a little boiled water.

Cover the vegetables with a lid and simmer for about 40 minutes over low heat. Do not forget to stir occasionally so that the bottom does not burn.

I also prefer to put a little less salt than in the recipe first, and then add to taste.

But that is not all. We want a homogeneous mass. Therefore, let the vegetables cool down a bit, and then grind the already prepared caviar again in a blender.

In principle, caviar is ready for consumption. But if you are preparing it for the winter, then bring the whole mass to a boil and put it in prepared jars.

It remains to tighten the metal caps and wait for winter (although I confess that it does not always remain before winter).

Awesome caviar with baked eggplant in Odessa

In this recipe, eggplants are baked until tender in the oven. It is this method of preparation that gives caviar a special taste. If you want to prepare blue ones (as the eggplants are called in this video) according to this recipe for the winter, then place the finished workpiece in sterilized jars or boil the jars together with the workpiece for 10 minutes and close with metal lids.

Preparation of eggplant caviar with tomatoes without sterilization

Eggplant goes well with many vegetables - with tomatoes, carrots, onions. Each of them plays a special note in this choir. Tomatoes give the finished dish juiciness and sourness, while carrots give tenderness and a sweetish taste, and onions give spiciness. This recipe contains all these vegetables, which means that a bouquet of flavors is guaranteed.

Ingredients:

  • eggplant - 3 kg.
  • tomatoes - 2 kg.
  • carrots - 1 kg.
  • bell pepper - 1 kg.
  • onions - 1 kg.
  • garlic - 2 heads
  • salt - 2-3 tbsp. l.
  • sugar - 1 tbsp. l.
  • vinegar 9% - 100 ml.
  • water - 250 ml.
  • pepper to taste
  • vegetable oil - 300 ml.

As you can see, the caviar will be rich in taste.

Let's start with carrots. We will rub it on a grater for Korean carrots, and if there is none, then on a coarse grater. And immediately we will fry in a pan, after pouring vegetable oil on it.

Now we need to remove the skin from the tomatoes. This is a simple matter - pour boiling water over them and leave for 10 minutes. After that, the skin is removed very easily. We cut the tomatoes into cubes.

As a rule, tomatoes release juice during slicing, so we squeeze the tomatoes a little, and pour the juice into the pan with vegetables.

Fry the tomatoes in vegetable oil in a separate pan for 5 minutes and add to the carrots.

Onion cut into half rings. If you like it smaller, cut into cubes, a matter of taste. And after that, we also throw the onion into the pan to the carrots. The aroma is already in the kitchen!

Remove the skin from the eggplant and cut the flesh into small cubes. They are also fried separately in vegetable oil in a pan for 5 minutes and sent to the vegetables.

Cut the bell pepper and put it in the main pan with raw vegetables. After that, add salt and sugar, mix. Pepper put to taste, but you can do without it, it will be so tasty.

And now the last step is to pour in 250 ml of cold water.

Bring the caviar to a boil, reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer until tender (about 30-40 minutes), stirring occasionally. Readiness is determined by the softness of vegetables. And, of course, we taste it, it may be necessary to salt it.

It remains to decompose into sterilized jars, close the lids and turn over.

Appetizer of eggplant and zucchini - cooking caviar through a meat grinder

Judging by the number of recipes, some of the most popular vegetables are zucchini and eggplant. They go well together, with the original taste of the blue ones even more pronounced in combination with neutral zucchini. In one of the past notes, I posted a very tasty recipe, and now I will introduce you to another wonderful recipe.

Ingredients:

  • eggplant - 1.5 kg.
  • zucchini - 1 kg.
  • tomatoes - 600-700 gr.
  • bell pepper - 5 pcs.
  • hot pepper - 2 pcs.
  • garlic - 3 heads
  • salt - 2-3 tbsp. l.
  • sugar - 3 tbsp. l.
  • vinegar 9% - 20 ml.
  • vegetable oil - 250 ml.

In many recipes vegetable caviar or adjika, I used a blender, because it is much easier and faster with it. But still, I came to the conclusion that the blender grinds too finely, almost into porridge. And sometimes you want to feel small pieces of vegetables on your tongue in order to feel the taste of each. And here the meat grinder comes in handy, and if it is electric, then it generally turns out even faster than using a blender. Therefore, in this recipe we use a meat grinder.

Sterilize jars and lids. We prepare vegetables.

If you are afraid that the eggplant will be bitter, then cut them into pieces, salt well and pour for 20 minutes cold water. After that, the water must be drained and the pieces washed. Remove the skin from the zucchini and cut into random pieces. Remove seeds from sweet peppers and cut lengthwise into several pieces.

Tomatoes and hot peppers are also cut randomly. And peel the garlic.

We pass all the ingredients through a meat grinder and put the mass into a deep pan. Add vegetable oil, salt and sugar. Stir and bring the mixture to a boil.

Simmer over low heat for about an hour. The mass is quite thick, so I don’t advise you to go far, and in order not to burn, you need to stir occasionally.

We lay out the hot snack in sterilized jars and roll up the lids. Banks are turned over, covered with a warm blanket.

Can ready meal leave in pieces, then it looks more like a salad. And you can chop with a blender, and then you will definitely get caviar.

We lay out the caviar in clean jars. Since we have mayonnaise in the recipe, I prefer to sterilize jars with blanks in a saucepan, it’s more reliable. I sterilize half-liter jars in boiling water for 10-15 minutes.

We roll it up securely with metal lids and then this yummy can be stored without a refrigerator.

Cooking blue caviar in a slow cooker without vinegar

  • vegetable oil - 3 tbsp. l.

I will say right away that we will chop the vegetables in this recipe with a blender. And this means that they can be cut arbitrarily, without trying to cut out beautiful cubes. Cut eggplant, tomatoes, Bell pepper, onion and garlic. We rub the carrots on a coarse grater, so it will cook faster.

Pour vegetable oil into the bottom of the multicooker, put chopped onion and garlic there. We put the slow cooker on the “Frying” mode and fry the onion and garlic until soft, this is about 5 minutes.

And it remains for us to decompose the blank into sterilized jars and tighten the lids.

Since this recipe does not contain vinegar, I also sterilize the workpiece in jars in boiling water to be safe. For a half-liter jar, it takes 7-10 minutes to boil.

So that the eggplants do not taste bitter, they should be cut into cubes and salted, left for about half an hour, so that the liquid stands out, which should be drained. You should know that eggplant seeds are a source of bitterness. Therefore, young eggplants, in which there are no seeds, do not taste bitter, they can be cooked immediately.

All ingredients for eggplant caviar should be local and seasonal (only in this case they will have that rich aroma that will help create a truly delicious dish).

During the preparation of products for the preparation of eggplant caviar, eggplants should not be finely chopped so that their taste is not lost in the finished caviar and does not deprive it of its unique taste.

This caviar can be cooked even with a small amount of oil, since all vegetables give up their juice, which is enough to stew them. This will be appreciated by those for whom the issue of caloric content of food is important. It is clear that from stewed vegetables more "light" caviar is obtained. But from vegetables fried in in large numbers oil, a product with a richer taste and smell is obtained.

Experienced chefs say that if eggplants for caviar are fried on a grill or smoked directly on gas on a burner, eggplant caviar will acquire a completely unique taste and aroma.
