Imam Baldi





Imam Baldi is stuffed aubergines. Both aubergine and filling are fried for a short time in a pan, after which the aubergine is stuffed then put into an over for 45-60 minutes. Vegetarians should take care to ask if the dish is vegetarian or with meat – both variations exist. Imam Baldi can be served cold as a starter, or warm as a main dish.



The vegetarian filling consists of tomatoes, garlic, onions, herbs and flour. It’s a cheap, nutritious and delicious meal that everyone will enjoy. As a main course it is usually served with chips or rice. On the odd occasion the chef may add a decorative leaf of lettuce to brighten up the plate.
