Amba is a tangy mango pickle condiment which originated in India and became popular in Middle Eastern cuisine. You can find it at almost every falafel and Shawarma shop in Israel! This is my quick version of how to incorporate some of the flavors without having to have dehydrated lemons on hand!

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Prepare 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  2. Add the eggplant, tomatoes, leeks, ¼ cup of olive oil and ½ teaspoon of salt and mix well and evenly. Place in oven for 30 minutes.
    If you want your eggplants to taste fried, add more olive oil and cook a bit longer in the oven!
  3. Using a blender or food processor, add the remaining olive oil, salt, and the rest of the ingredients except the lettuce. Blend until smooth.
  4. Add the lettuce to a large bowl and add the tomatoes, leeks and eggplant. Add dressing right before serving.
