Nigvziani badrijani (or badrijani nigvzit) is a very popular Georgian appetizer that consists of fried eggplant rolls filled with a garlicky walnut paste.

To get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have georgian eggplant rolls using 9 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Georgian Eggplant Rolls:
  1. Take 2 medium eggplant
  2. Prepare 3 cloves garlic
  3. Get 6 tbsp water
  4. Get 1 cup chopped walnuts
  5. Take 1 tsp ground coriander
  6. Make ready 2 tsp red wine vinegar
  7. Prepare 1 tsp cayenne
  8. Take as needed salt
  9. Prepare as needed olive oil

Remove eggplant from the pan and use kitchen paper to absorb excess oil. Spread the walnut mixture onto each slice of eggplant. This is a fresh version of the Georgian dish badrijani nigvzit, using grilled eggplant instead, but with the same flavours. Try to use narrow eggplants, rather than bulbous ones, to give you long slices for rolling.

Steps to make Georgian Eggplant Rolls:
  1. Slice eggplant to about 1/4". Salt both sides of the eggplant slices and lay them out on paper towels. Let them sit for about 30 minutes as you prepare the filling.
  2. Combine garlic and water in a food processor and process until the garlic is pretty finely dispersed in the water. Remove this garlic liquid to a bowl.
  3. Now toss the walnuts in the food processor and chop to a sand-like consistency.
  4. Add the walnuts to the garlic liquid and add the vinegar and cayenne. Mix well and season to taste. Feel free to play with the spicy, salty, tangy balance to your liking.
  5. Place a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add a good amount of olive oil.
  6. When the oil is nice and hot, start browning your eggplant slices on both sides. You'll end up needing to add oil continuously because eggplant tends to soak up a crazy amount of oil as it cooks. Transfer the cooked eggplant slices to a paper towel lined plate as they're finished cooking. The paper towels will soak up some of that oil.
  7. Once the slices are cooled, one by one, spread a layer of walnut paste on each slice, and roll it up gently. I applied a layer of paste about as thick as i would use on a peanut butter sandwich.
  8. Arrange the eggplant rolls on a platter and garnish with cilantro or pomegranate.
