Description

Green bean stew, better known as Lubya, is wonderful and healthy Mediterranean dish that incorporates both protein and vegetables with a robust flavor.  This dish is very versatile and can be cooked with beef, lamb, chicken or you can omit the meat and make it a vegetarian dish.  It is traditionally served with rice and is an all around crowd pleaser.

Sorry I think the last half of my message disappeared. Dimassi's is the
restaurants name in Houston. Then, under their menu items, they have a
'Dimassi's eggplant' with a brief description of the dish. It says something
about pomegranate mosses, olive oil and diced pepper. Im wondering if this is
just one of their special creative dishes, or is it a common med. dish?

Ok there are 2 Mediterranean dishes in which people often confuse the names.
Mutabal Batinjan is when the eggplant is combined with sesame paste, lemon juice
and garlic. Baba Ganouj is when eggplant is combined with lemon juice, garlic
and olive oil, then topped with chopped parsley, tomato, green onion and
sometimes green pepper. A lot of restaurants list baba ganouj on their menu when
it's actually mutabal batinjan. You can check out my recipe for mutabal on my
website, I have it listed as baba ganouj too b/c that's what most people think
it's named. Either one of these eggplant dishes can be topped with pomegranit
syrup and pieces, parsley, onions or any vegetable you want. Let me know if you
have any questions.

Hello Dede,
I am actually looking for a recipe for an eggplant dish that I
always get at the Med. rest. that I go to. Now, I know for sure it is not Baba
Ganoush. It is not processed in a blender for sure. It looks maybe like strips
of eggplant. I hope you can help me with the name of this dish!! Thanks!!, btw,
I love youre videos, very easy to follow!

Hi Jessica,
I need a little bit more information on the eggplant dish. Was it
mixed with anything else? Did it have chick peas or tomatoes? Was it stuffed
eggplant? Give me a little bit more insight and hopefully I can figure it out
and get this dish made for you
HAPPY COOKING!
