Before the weekend came to a close, I made a trip to Trader Joe's and stocked up on breads, including lavash. Remembering a recipe I'd seen in my Persian cookbook, I decided on trying Persian Eggplant Lavash Filled With Mint, Yogurt, Onion, and Garlic.
The exterior is wrapped with eggplant -- this is easily done by thinly slicing an eggplant, painting it with olive oil, and placing the slices in the oven at 450F until they turn golden and/begin to brown. Remove while still soft.
The filling of the lavash rolls are made by sauteeing onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and mint in olive oil. When soft, transfer to a food processor and blend. Add a small amount of yogurt.
After being rolled, the rolls are then dipped in strained Greek yogurt and eaten. Yum! This would make a great party-platter dish for sure, but be aware that the eggplant exterior makes for messy eating.
