Opanak. I must mention right away that my pancakes were not the same, but neither were the eggplants. One shot went a little wrong.

I've seen aubergine slippers and ballet flats, but I decided to make ankle boots with straps. I have Mačvanske opanka, and I love them very much, but my real opanka have no fault. These ones do, and that's exactly why I like them.

Opanak, ingredients:

  • 2 eggplants,
  • 100 grams of bacon,
  • 1 head of onion,
  • 100 grams of rice,
  • 2 red peppers and
  • to taste: salt, pepper and dry herbal seasoning.

 Opanak, preparation:

  • Hollow out the eggplant, forming small balls, and sprinkle a little salt on the inside.
  • Cut the center of the eggplant, which we hollowed out, into cubes and fry with chopped onion and bacon.
  • Add pre-boiled rice, chopped paprika, and spices to taste: salt, pepper, and dry herbs to that mixture.
  • Pour a little water and simmer for a few minutes.
  • Cover the pan with baking paper, then place the eggplant and fill the pastry shells with the mixture.
  • Let's make two strips of eggplant, put them over them, they are our straps.
  • Bake at 180 C for about 25 minutes in a preheated oven.
  • We decorate to taste.
