Ingredients
Show ingredients
- eggplants - 1 kg;
- hot pepper - 1 pcs;
- sweet pepper - 4-5 pcs;
- garlic - 8-10 cloves;
- sunflower oil - 250 ml;
- salt - 30 g;
- sugar - 50 g;
- table vinegar 9% - 2 tbsp.
Preparation
- Prepare all necessary products.
- Rinse the eggplants and cut them into circles about 6-8 mm thick, not thicker.
- Fry the circles in hot vegetable oil until golden brown. Fry the vegetables in batches, laying them in a single layer in the pan.
- Since the vegetable absorbs a lot of oil, you will need to add more each time you lay out a new batch.
- While the vegetable is frying, prepare the spicy dressing. Remove the seeds, membranes, and attachment points of the sweet and hot peppers. If you want to make the snack even more "fiery," you can leave the seeds in the hot pepper. Cut the peppers and garlic into small pieces for easier chopping.
- Pass the chopped peppers along with the garlic through a meat grinder or use a blender. You should get a homogeneous paste to which add 2 tbsp. of vinegar, 30 g of salt, and 50 g of sugar. Mix, so everything is evenly distributed.
- We start assembling the jars with the tasty snack. Place a few circles of golden eggplants on the bottom, then add 1 tbsp. of the spicy dressing, then again circles, which are again covered with the pepper dressing.
- Fill all the jars according to this principle. From the specified quantity of products, 3 jars with a volume of 0.5 l are obtained.
- Cover the jars with metal lids and place them in a pot filled with water that covers the jars up to the "shoulders", and sterilize for 10 minutes.
- Then carefully remove the jars from the pot (it is convenient to do this with special tongs) and seal them.
- Eggplants "Firefly" for the winter are ready. Enjoy!
