Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggplant

    Slice the eggplant into 1/2 inch thick rounds. Sprinkle salt on both sides and let it sit for about 30 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggplant

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium heat. Brush the eggplant slices with olive oil and grill or sauté for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and tender.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Pretzel Buns

    While the eggplant is cooking, slice the pretzel buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread aioli on the bottom half of each pretzel bun. Layer the grilled eggplant, lettuce, tomato slices, and dill pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve with Tavern Fries

    Serve the eggplant sandwiches with a side of tavern fries and enjoy!
