Zaalouk (Spicy Aubergine Salad) - Morocco image

Called ajlouk in Tunisia. Make this a little in advance, so the flavors blend well. If you can't find harissa, add 1 tsp paprika and a good pinch of cayenne.

This zaalouk was a bit too oily for my liking. I think I'll try grilling the aubergines next time instead of frying them.

I found this recipe to be a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less harissa.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my zaalouk turned out really bland. I think I might have used too much water.

I'm not a big fan of aubergines, but I really enjoyed this dish. The spices really helped to balance out the flavor of the aubergines.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover aubergines. I had some aubergines that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this dish. It turned out great!

This zaalouk recipe is a keeper! The aubergines were so tender and flavorful, and the spices really brought the dish together. I served it with some grilled chicken and couscous, and it was a hit with my family.
