I'm Romanian too and I can say whole hearteadly that this is my favourite dish ever!! For a great salad don't bake the eggplants in the oven but rather cook directly on the cooktop - I know it's messy but it's the best way. The way I like it is without garlic, just onion, and with home made mayonnaise. It's really easy to make and it beats by far the supermarket mayonnaise. Add a little mustard for the flavour and mustar also helps it from spoiling (using a hard boiled egg yolk has the same effect) and add a little lemon juice - fluffy and yummy. No parsley needed. Maybe a slice of feta chesse. Enjoy!

I a Romanian mum and I spent 6 years in Scotland, I got to know and really enjoy the TV cooking programs, especially Jamie's!
This recipe is very Romanian as we've prepared it for years. We prepare it a bit different though, instead of a whole onion we use haf onion and 1-2 garlic cloves. It adds a bit more flavour. Also you don't need mayonnaise, according with my version, because I use some sunflower oil ( about 3-4 table spoons) and an egg yolk and I'm mixing everything togetherfor 5 minutes with the hand mixer ( full speed)
Pofta buna!
