Ingredients:
1 small eggplant
200 gr mushrooms

Preparation:
Wash rice and put it in hot salty water fro ~ 30 minutes, after that, remove it from water. Cut eggplants into small cubes(1x1x1cm) and fry them in pan. cut mushroom into the cubes too and fry them in the pot until they start to absorb the liquid(~ 10-15 minut). After that add eggplants and rice to the pot, add 1.5 cups hot water and salt, stir it, close the lid(Don't stir it again and don't open the lid. ) and put it on medium temperature. When water boils lower temperature on min and cook until its done.(~35 minutes)
