How to make
Peel the eggplants and cut them into discs or cubes. Add salt, allow to drain from the bitter juice, rinse and gently pat dry. Fry the eggplant pieces in hot oil.
In the same oil, fry the chopped onion until golden. Add flour, paprika, the chopped tomatoes, peppers, and peeled garlic cloves. Transfer everything into a baking dish and add the walnuts, bay leaf, black pepper and crushed fennel.
Stir and let it bake in moderately heated oven until the dish is left to cook in just oil. Optionally, at the end, sprinkle cheese - parmesan, or all-natural cow's cheese if possible.
