Eggplant absorbs a great deal of oil so you need to add more while you are frying. I heat some garlic in a reasonable amount of oil, take it out, add the eggplant and when I turn them, add more oil. The flavour comes from the oil too (olive ONLY!) and the garlic of course. I then salt them and voila! Yum!

try frying them over really low heat with limited oil. Takes a while, but if you don't want to use as much oil.

After they have browned slightly on one side, turn them over, and after about 5 mins squash them with the back of an egg flip, juice will come out, but they cook in this. Use thick slices of egg plant.

Not sure how to bake eggplant

Hey, try this Aubergine receipe can do it on grill or baked

Cut side up, put all aubergine into big blow, pouring with olive oil, pinch of salt and pepper fresh thyme and 3 cloves of garlic. Mix them until every eggplant absorb the mixture.

put them into a baking tray, white part on top.

Bake until it turns lightly brown. Arrange eggplants on a platter and top with tomatoes. Drizzle with remaining oil and lemon juice.

Eggplant lasagna


Grill 8 whole eggplants then peel off charred skin, leaving the stem intact. Mash it with a fork to make it flat (like a lasagna noodle).


For the sauce, you can use either bottled marinara or bolognese, cooked with additional chopped onions tomatoes, green and red bell pepper and basil leaves. You may also add chopped zucchini and grated carrots.


Grease with cooking spray an 8x8 baking dish. As you would a lasagna, layer the eggplant alternately with the marinara then top with grated mozzarella, parmesan and colby (or whatever tasty cheese you like). Cut off the stems after layering. Finish off with a topping of grated cheese then bake in a preheated oven until bubbly. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving

will try that. to the original poster, try marinating your eggplant in a mixture of olive oil/lemon or wine vinegar/salt/herb before grilling. won't taste dry this way.

wash them with lots of salt. no water. rub them with salt and squeeze out all the black water first, you will be surprised to see how much black nicotine filled water will squeeze out. then onto the pan, with olive oil, always a but sugar, and tomato/


if grilling, no need to wash, just put the eggplants onto the fire, one minute per side. then take away, peel, or gut the iside out, season, add olive oil and garlic. yum.
