Kherson-style eggplants is a traditional dish originating from Kherson, a region with abundant eggplants. The dish is usually made with a combination of eggplants, tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, garlic, lemon juice, sunflower oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper. The vegetables are washed and peeled. The eggplants and bell peppers are cut in half and roasted in the oven, while the tomatoes are blanched and cut into cubes. The eggplants, bell peppers, and tomatoes are mixed with garlic, grated onions, lemon juice, oil, and seasonings. The mixture is stirred until smooth, and it's then typically served as an appetizer with bread or croutons.
