Low-oil yogurt eggplant is made by combining cooked eggplant with yogurt, often seasoned with garlic and salt. Roast or grill the eggplant with little oil, let it cool, then fold it into the yogurt and serve.
Roasting or grilling is the better fit for Low-oil yogurt eggplant because it uses less oil than frying. Roasting gives the dish a mellow flavor, while grilling adds a smoky note; either way, cool the eggplant before mixing it with yogurt.

Low-oil yogurt eggplant is a Turkish home-style dish of cooked eggplant served with yogurt. The eggplant may be roasted, grilled or gently cooked in a pan, then spooned with plain yogurt; some versions add garlic. Recipes vary, so the yogurt can be either a loose dressing or a thicker topping.
The creamy, tangy yogurt contrasts with the eggplant’s soft texture and, when roasted, its smoky notes. In Turkey it appears as a meze or a side dish; it also works as a light lunch with bread or alongside grilled vegetables and meats. It is a vegetable-forward choice with fibre and some protein from the yogurt. Roast or grill the eggplant rather than frying it to keep the dish lighter.
