I couldn't get baby eggplants, so I just got a couple big ones, and didn't stuff per se, just served the stuffing with slices of lovely braised eggplant. The stuffing worked very nicely the next day in pitas--I thought I'd made too much, but it VANISHED. Thank you so much for posting this recipe!

But as I know just how silkily smooth and gorgeous olive oil makes eggplant, I can understand and approve of it :) Beautiful dish!

The eggplants I got were too big (couldn't find smaller ones) and so it took a long time to braise them, but it's still very, very good. The sauces is like red velvet. I did make this!

And my dad made it several times as the first course for Xmas lunch. My parents first introduced me to Imam Bayildi when I was only a few years old, at a restaurant called Hodja Nasreddin.
