### 🔀 Instructions

&emsp;

• Remove 3 vertical strips of skin from each aubergine. Discard the vertical strips and cut the aubergines in large cubes. *Removing a few stripes of the skin allows the zaalouk to be softer when prepared, feel free to leave them if desired.* 

&emsp;

• In a medium sized pan, heat the olive oil and add all the ingredients (except the lemon wedges). Cover with a lid over medium-low heat until the vegetables are soft, about 25 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure the vegetables don't stick to the pan.

&emsp;

• Uncover, mash the vegetables (with a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon) and leave over medium heat until all the liquids evaporate. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt if necessary. Serve warm or at room temperature, as a side, a dip or a spread with a squeeze if lemon juice, if desired.
