"To prepare everything takes 10 to 15 minutes, to cook (without any more manipulations or attention) another 45 to 50 minutes." - Recipe submitted by Oxana Genina of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine

Egg-plants For Lazy Gourmets

Egg-plants - 1 kg

Tomatoes - 300 to 400 gr (3 to 4 tomatoes)

Onions - 1 to 2

Garlic - 5 to 6 cloves

Sunflower oil - 100 to 150 ml

Salt

Any greens (not necessary)

1. Peel egg-plants, slice them lengthwise into 3 to 4 slices each. Slice tomatoes in rings (better peel their skin off, too). Onions - also in rings, garlic - into 4 to 5 pieces each clove.
2. Place everything in layers (egg-plants - tomatoes - onion - garlic - egg-plants, etc.) in a teflon frying pan or sausepan with sunflower oil (quantity of layers depends on the diameter of your sauce), sift some salt on each layer. No spices are needed, egg-plants are spicy enough by themselves.
3. Cook on a very small flame with a lid closed for 45 to 50 minutes. Do not stir!
4. Serve hot, warm or cold. Tastes good just with bread or with anything you like - garnishes, meat, fresh vegetables.
