[Anonymous No.4689788]

Cut it up

Roast it

Eat it

[Anonymous No.4689792]

Moussaka is definitely my favorite dish with eggplant in it. You should definitely try that.

Agreed. I don' really like eggplant, but if you're eating it, this is the way to go.

Yea, i looked into it but ive recently gone vegetarian and the meatless ones look gross

[Anonymous No.4689807]

Either make Moussaka out of it, or make Baba Ganoush out of it. I have eggplant a lot, but the way I like it is fried, then I take some pita bread (Levant kind), put it between a piece just a bit bigger than the eggplant slice and add some salt and lemon.

Also, eat it with a fresh mint yogurt topping or tzatziki. Or with just yogurt, really.

That Babe Ganoush looks really good, but have you tried Eggplant Bacon? I just came across it and it looks good & simple.

there is some arabic/berber/lebanese? dish called mousaka which is without pasta and contains chickpeas and eggplant in a spicy tomatosauce, tastes nice and is veggie with protein.

also try penne alla norma, a sicilian dish of tomato sauce, penne, fried aubergine and mozzarella. You can add hot peppers if you like spicy food.

Cut it in half, pick up a pot, cut some onions in cubes and some olive oil, let them brown, add tomatoes, salt and minced meat and some pepper. After that cooks, remove it from the stove and place the meat inside the eggplant halves and place them in the oven so that they get crispy.

I may try it if I have some left overs

I think I may have tried it. My grandmother makes a lot of Eggplant stuff, (She's Lebanese). Eggplant is always good with pita bread.

>>4689823

This? Yeah it's called Moussaka, it's different from the other stuff and its made like a stew I think. This is how my grandma makes it but I've never seen it made like that so I just call it Lebanese Moussaka. I had some last night, actually. It's pretty good, ate it with pita.

Nevermind I remembered the name, it's called Maghmour. Look that up and you should get some recipes. It's vegan.

Don't mean to be a nuisance but can you link me to one? All the ones I find are filled with chickpeas/zucchini

Oh, and disregard anyone claiming that you should bake them in the oven because that makes'em taste like car tires.

Always simmer them in a pot for about 45 minutes with a bit of water. Always simmer them.
