I have one in my fridge and have never used it before. I'm making cranberry chicken with rice tonight and wanted to try using it (since my asperagus went bad....). What is an easy way to make this? I have a cold, and 3 energetic kids so my energy level isn't the greatest.
Is there a way to steam it and have it turn out well?
Cook it whole over an open flame, till burnt. Peel it and take the insides and smash them up adding salt, pepper and garlic. Serve on bread with thinly sliced onion and tomato. I know it sounds odd and fairly unappealing but I swear this is SO YUMMY. It is a Romanian appetizer, called eggplant salad.( This is a great camping dish )

I love fried eggplant! Kids will too! Just use eggs, flour and oil. Cut the eggplant into slices (like tomato slices). Coat it with the egg. Put it in flour and then drop into the oil. Add salt and pepper or vegetable seasoning to taste!
Or, my husband has grilled it before too. He cut it into slices. Put extra virgin olive oil on it and then sprinkled it with vegetable seasoning (like Mrs. Dash). He then put it on a "screen" (not sure what it is really called) and onto the grill. I'm assuming you could probably do this in the oven too if you don't want to grill.
We grill it.
Or, you could make baba ghanouj! I love it and have been eating it for about a week now with crackers or veggies lol

It's an awesome eggplant and tahini dip! It's great on crackers, pitas or as a spread on toast etc.
I usually make a dip with 3 eggplants, but you could do a smaller recipe if you didn't have much. Do you have sesame seeds to make tahini? All you need to do is roast them in the oven for a few minutes and then throw them in a blender.
