Julie’s eggplant extravaganza all starts with her signature starter called batenjen mishwee, a fire-roasted eggplant spread. Her main dish, sheikh el’ mahshi, showcases baby Indian eggplants, that are sautéed and stuffed with a meat and pine nut mixture baked in a tomato casserole. Last is a specialty breakfast dish called bayd b batenjen - baked eggs and eggplants.
