Lazzat salad is a vegetable and healthy dish. Prepared with just two main ingredients – eggplant and tomato. These vegetables are ideally combined with each other and do not require other components. To emphasize the taste of vegetables – add some fresh herbs. Parsley or cilantro works well if you like.
The salad does not require dressing or sauce, as eggplants are fried in oil and absorb a lot of fat, so do not pour anything on the dish. Use ripe and juicy tomatoes – you can use both red tomatoes and pink or yellow ones to make the dish colorful.

- Eggplant – 200 g.
- Tomatoes – 200 g.
- Starch potato or corn – 2 tbsp. l.
- Parsley – 3-4 sprigs.
- Vegetable oil – 40 g.
