Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Prick the eggplants with a fork and place them on a baking sheet.

Roast the eggplants in the oven until the skin is wrinkled and the flesh is soft, about 30-40 minutes.

Remove the eggplants from the oven and let them cool.

Peel the skin off the cooled eggplants and place the flesh in a mixing bowl.

Add minced garlic, chopped walnuts, and chopped onion to the eggplant flesh.

Drizzle in vegetable oil and vinegar, then mix well until combined.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Blend the mixture until smooth or leave it slightly chunky, as preferred.

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve at room temperature with bread.
