Berenjenas en escabeche is a classic Argentinian side dish consisting of eggplant slices that are boiled in a water-vinegar mixture with bay leaves until tender. They are then left to soak in a jar filled with olive oil, crushed red pepper, dried oregano, and garlic.

These flavorful eggplant slices can be consumed as an appetizer, an interesting sandwich filling, or as a perfect accompaniment to traditional Argentinian asado.
