Kashk Bademjoon Recipe (Iranian Eggplant Dish)


I have tasted this dish in an iranian restaurant in Dubai. It is so delicious and easy to make, you can serve it with pita bread. They call it kashk in Iran , in Turkey we say Kaymak. I am not sure if you can find it wherever you are but it suppose to be sold in Middle eastern groceries. I think sour cream would be fine with it. My friend told kashk is something salty but Kaymak is not, so i used some salt more .. So you can just taste before heat off, and add more salt if needed.
Enjoy!!
