I'm not sure what it's called, not babaganoush. It's not really a dip. It's eggplant cut up in small pieces, probably fried with more things added.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about and have a recipe?
Thanks!

The original receipe is to roast the entire eggplants on open fire.
However, I put the eggplants in the oven for about 40 minutes at about 230°C (make a few cuts in the eggplants, so that they won't explode).

Peal the eggplants.
Drain the juice.

Add 1 clove of garlick.
1 big spoon of techina.
salt, pepper

Blend well in blender to make a paste.

(you could also take roasted onion instead of garlick, then it has a sweet taste)
(you can also take mayonnaise instead of techina)

Mrs Bissli's Fried Eggplant

2 large eggplant, cut into 3/4" rounds and then into matchstix
flour
salt and pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 scallions, chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp sugar
paprika
cumin

Place the eggplant strips in a colander in the sink, and sprinkle with 1 tbsp salt. Leave to sweat for 30 to 45 minutes. Squeeze dry and rinse off salt; pat dry.
Season flour with salt and pepper and sprinkle over eggplant.
In a large skillet, heat oil until very hot. Fry eggplant in batches until golden brown on both sides, in one single layer, stirring occasionally. Do not overcrowd pan.
Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to absorb extra oil.
In the used empty pan, fry garlic for one minute. Turn off heat and add scallions. Mix tomato paste with lemon juice together and add to pan. Add eggplant; sprinkle with a generous dash of paprika, a dash of cumin, and 2 tsp sugar and toss to coat.
Allow flavors to meld at least 1 hour, before serving.

Equal amounts water sugar and vinegar-boil or zap in microwave or use hot water to dissolve
Add few cloves crushed or sliced garlic and white pepper
