currants

Elegant yet comforting, this stuffed eggplant dish layers Middle Eastern-inspired flavors into a wholesome centerpiece. Tender roasted eggplants cradle a fragrant bulgur filling enriched with golden onions, garlic, and the eggplant’s own flesh. Toasted pine nuts add buttery crunch, while currants bring a sweet counterpoint to warm spices like cinnamon, allspice, and cumin.
