Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggplant

    Slice the eggplants into 1/2 inch thick rounds. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 20 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Cook the Romano Beans

    Boil the Romano beans in salted water for about 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare Cashew Mixture

    In a food processor, blend the cashews with ground coriander, a pinch of salt, and a tablespoon of olive oil until smooth. Add water as necessary to achieve a creamy consistency.

Grilling

  1. 4

    Grill the Eggplant

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the eggplant slices with olive oil and season with black pepper. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side until tender and grill marks appear.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Serve the grilled eggplant topped with the creamy cashew mixture and alongside the cooked Romano beans.
