Aubergines à la bohémienne / Bohemian Eggplant

This Provençale dish is dear to my heart; it is a family heirloom. My mother was from Provence and often made this traditional dish for family dinners or simply because we loved it. She was a great cook, expressing her generosity, Provençale tradition, humour, and love, typical of the South of France, while welcoming friends and family around the table. I rarely make this dish, so this is an homage to her.
