Pickled eggplants with carrots, herbs and garlic for the winter

The recipe for making a snack is very ordinary, but at the same time fascinating and unusual. Who would have thought that fermenting eggplants with vegetables could be so delicious and quick!

  • Eggplants - 2 kg;
  • Parsley - 50 g;
  • Bay leaf - 5 pcs.;
  • Peppercorns - 2-3 pcs.;
  • Carrots - 100 g;
  • Garlic - 3-4 cloves;
  • Coarse salt - 60 g;
  • Boiled water - 3 l.

For the dish, you need to choose mature and good-quality eggplants. They are strong and dense in mixture, smooth in appearance and have little shine, and dark purple in color. Small fruits are suitable for this recipe. Wash them in running water and cut off the tails.

Pour 2 liters of boiled water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add 20 g of salt and place the blue fruits in a saucepan in a metal sieve.

After a couple of minutes (no more than 3-4), remove the sieve with the blue fruits from the water. If you do not have a pan and a sieve of a suitable size (for 2 kg of vegetables), you can process the vegetables in several batches.

Place the fruits to cool. With all this, you can press them a little so that the salty broth drips out. There is no need to press too hard, otherwise the vegetables will lose their shape.

The next step is cutting the fruit from the top, just short of the bottom. This must be done carefully so as not to cut the eggplants completely.

For the inside, we clean and rinse other vegetables - parsley, garlic and carrots. It is better to soak the greens in a cup of cool water so that all possible dirt comes off. Wash the parsley under cool running water, air dry and chop (not finely). Crush the garlic with a special press, and grate the carrots on a medium grater.

Now the inside of the eggplants needs to be coated with garlic puree and stuffed with carrots and parsley.

Take a saucepan for fermentation, place bay leaves and peppercorns on the bottom, and then blue fruits.

Now you can start making brine. Pour 1 liter of water into a separate pan and add 40 g of salt. Bring the brine over moderate heat until the salt dissolves and pour it over the vegetables. Do this carefully so that the inside of the blue fruit does not jump out from the stream.

Then you need a lid or a dish slightly smaller in diameter than the pan. It is necessary to cover the eggplants and press down with a weight.

We leave it warm for 2-3 days, then transfer the pan to the cold - to the balcony, veranda, or cellar. Blueberries are usually fermented at the end of September - beginning of October in order to preserve them until winter.

Eggplants, pickled without brine (fast)

For the recipe you need to take:

  • Eggplants - 2 kg;
  • Carrots - 2 pcs.;
  • Greens (dill, parsley, basil) - 50 g;
  • Garlic - 100 g;
  • Coarse salt - 70 g.

Let's start making:

  1. So, first you need to rinse and peel all the vegetables on the list. Cut off the stem of the eggplants. Peel the carrots using a paring knife or a sharp knife. Remove dry skins from garlic. Sort out the greens and wash them.
  2. After washing, the carrots must be grated and the garlic cut into thin slices. Chop the greens on a cutting board with a table knife.
  3. Boil a liter of water in a saucepan, add salt and put blue vegetables in it. Boil for 2-3 minutes. No more, otherwise the vegetables will be very soft.
  4. Carefully remove the limp fruits and cool slightly.
  5. Squeeze the broth slightly; the eggplants, like a sponge, absorb a lot of water.
  6. Cut one side of any blue fruit and rub the inside with salt. Stuff with carrots, garlic and herbs. You can tie the fruits with thread so that the inside does not fall out.
  7. Place the tied stuffed vegetables in a pan under a weight or place in a clean, dry jar. After a certain number of days, the snack will be ready.

Pickled eggplants with carrots, herbs and garlic are finger-licking good even without brine. Be sure to watch this video recipe to see for yourself!

Pickled blue ones stuffed with vegetables and sweet peppers

So, let's start with:

  • Eggplants - 2 kg;
  • Sweet bell pepper –500 g;
  • Garlic - 3-4 cloves;
  • Dill greens - 30 g;
  • Chili pepper - 1 pc.;
  • Coarse salt - 70 g;
  • Aspirin pills - 1 pc. per jar with a capacity of 1 liter.

Let's start making stuffed pickled eggplants:

  1. First, prepare all the vegetables. Processing blue fruits, herbs and garlic does not differ from the other recipes already indicated. But with pepper it’s a completely different story. Especially with chili. Both must be cleared of seeds and stalks. There's nothing complicated here. But to clean the chili, it is better to wear rubber gloves. Chili essential oils can simply cause serious burns to the skin of your hands.
  2. After this, the peppers must be finely cut into cubes.
  3. Press the garlic through a special press, and finely chop the greens.
  4. In a separate cup, mix garlic, diced peppers and herbs. Season with salt and mix well.
  5. Create a cut in the eggplant along the entire length, but not all the way. Use a knife to create a small indentation in each half.
  6. Place the blue ones in a steel sieve and lower them into a saucepan with bubbling salted water (5-10 g of salt is enough).
  7. After 2-3 minutes, remove. The eggplants should be soft, but not lose their shape. When the fruits have cooled, squeeze them out with your hands or press them down with a clean plate.
  8. Place the filling into the cuts of the blue fruits and place the full eggplants in a dense layer in jars that have been sterilized in advance with boiling water or bubbling steam.
  9. Place 1 aspirin tablet in each jar.

There should be juice left from the vegetables in the cup, pour it into the pan and add a glass of boiling water. Boil. Pour the solution into jars up to the shoulders.

Cover the jars with sterilized lids and sterilize in a saucepan of slowly bubbling water.

After 15 minutes, remove the jars and seal them tightly with steel lids. Turn the jars over and leave them in a warm place to cool. It is better to cover them with a blanket or thick towel.

This snack must be stored in a cool place. And it will amuse you with its excellent taste all winter long.

  2. In the meantime, chop the remaining vegetables. Grind the carrots on a grater. Finely chop the garlic and celery with a knife. And chop all the greens. Mix vegetables in a cup.

Pickled eggplants stuffed with carrots and garlic, cooked without vinegar, are naturally healthier. And their taste is more natural than sour ones. But for lovers of snacks with vinegar, there are several recipes in canning cookbooks. You have now met one of them.

Recipe for pickled eggplants stuffed with carrots and garlic - the best winter snack

Vegetable snacks are an excellent complement to any dish: barbecue cooked over a fire, or ordinary boiled potatoes. Pickled stuffed eggplants with vegetables (carrots and garlic) are spicy, fragrant and beautiful due to the contrast of “blue” and orange root vegetables. They immediately attract attention in the markets among the stalls with pickles. Try making them at home - it's completely easy and cheap. Moreover, the vegetable season has not yet ended.

Ingredients

  • 12 pcs. medium-sized eggplants (approximately 4 kg);
  • 5-6 pcs. carrots (about 1 kg);
  • a bunch of fresh herbs to taste;
  • 1 head of garlic;
  • 2 pcs. bell pepper;
  • 1 onion.

For the brine:

  • 2 liters of water;
  • 2-3 level tablespoons of salt;
  • 1 bay leaf;
  • 6 dark peppercorns.

Eggplants should be taken straight, not curved. They should not be very thick or old with a huge number of seeds. You can take one variety of greens or mix dill with parsley and cilantro.

I love eggplants, but I always miss recipes that call for frying them. In my opinion, no other vegetable absorbs fat as well as they do. I fell in love with this recipe because it is possible to do without oil to make pickled “blue” ones.

How to cook

  1. Wash the eggplants, cut off the “tails”, and prick them well along the entire length with a toothpick. This is necessary so that the bitterness comes out more quickly.
  2. Boil eggplants in salted water (to taste). It’s important not to overcook the “little blue ones.” Simply check their readiness with a knife: if the blade enters the fruit without effort, then it’s enough. The approximate cooking time is 10-15 minutes, it depends on the size of the vegetables. It’s better to cook 3 pieces in a pan, turning them over often and holding them with a slotted spoon or spatula so that they don’t always float on only one side.

Boiled eggplants
Place the cooked vegetables on a baking sheet or in a wide bowl. I don’t have such wide dishes; I used the kitchen sink. Place a tray or board on top and press down with a weight (a jar or a pan of water). Leave it for 1-2 hours so that the excess water comes out along with the bitterness.

Place the eggplants in a container and put pressure on top so that the water drains out.
Create a longitudinal cut in the eggplants, but not all the way, so that they do not fall apart into two halves and it looks like a pocket or an open book.

Do not cut completely.
Peel the carrots, grate them on a large grater or in Korean. You can fry it in a frying pan by adding refined vegetable oil. There is no need to keep it on the fire for a long time, 5 minutes is enough, the carrots do not have to soften too much. But I never fry.

Grate the carrots.
Wash and remove seeds from the sweet pepper. Finely chop. If you don’t like pepper in any form, you don’t have to put it in. I advise you to take a large, fleshy reddish pepper, rather than a small yellow-greenish one, it is juicier and sweeter.

Finely chop the sweet pepper

  • Peel and chop the onion. It will give juiciness to the insides.
  • Chop the garlic with a knife or pass through a garlic press. If you like it spicy, add hot pepper to taste.

    Finely chop the garlic and hot chili pepper.
    Finely chop the greens.

    Finely chop the parsley.
    Mix everything with the carrots - the inside is ready.

    Carrot and garlic innards for stuffing eggplants

  • Boil the brine. Yes, it’s a brine, not a marinade, so we’ll cook it without vinegar. Add salt (1 tablespoon per 1 liter), spices to boiling water and let it boil. Cool to room temperature.
  • Stuff eggplants with carrots and herbs. You can tie it with any thread so that the inside does not spill out. It’s better to do this function over a baking sheet so as not to mess everything around. Parsley trunks are also suitable for tying, but it’s easier for me to work with threads, it’s more reliable.

    Stuffed eggplant with carrots
    Place the stuffed eggplants in a bowl or pan, pour cool brine. The filling must completely cover the vegetables.

    Place in a pan of a suitable size
    . Create pressure: cover the “little blue” ones with a plate, put a weight on it. The easiest way is to use a jar of water.

    Put oppression

  • Leave the eggplants to ferment in this state for 2-3 days at room temperature, until lactic acid fermentation begins. Then it is better to taste it to see if there is enough sourness and when the taste properties are absolutely satisfactory.
  • After this, drain the brine, remove the strings from the vegetables, put them in a 3-liter jar or transfer them to another pan. Pour in vegetable oil and place in a cool space.
  • This snack can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks. But from my own experience I will say that you can stretch out the time and close it for the winter by putting the eggplants in unstained jars and filling them with vegetable oil (without brine). Preserved in this way, we ate them for the New Year. But they usually spread quite quickly, so you need to prepare more.

    Before serving, cut the stuffed eggplants into pieces. Those who love celery can grate its root, fry it together with carrots and use any vegetable filling that you like.

    Pickled stuffed eggplants are simply delicious. With sourness and without excess fat, they will appeal to everyone: meat-eaters, vegetarians, and those on a diet. Watch the video and get started!

    Pickled eggplants stuffed with vegetables

    Pickled eggplants stuffed with carrots and garlic will decorate any formal or everyday table. When serving, the vegetable is cut into similar pieces and laid out on a ceremonial dish in the form of rolls.

    The process of making this fascinating workpiece for us consists of 2 steps:

    • fermenting vegetables in a separate container;
    • laying out in sterile jars and sterilization with the next rolling.
