I know it’s a matter of taste, like everything else, but I think that this is one unique vegetable that not everyone likes but honestly, I don’t see a reason not to like it.

I’m talking about eggplants of course, I personally love eggplant salad, stuffed eggplant, fried, roasted, just bring it on. It usually has it’s distinct flavor but it blends so well with everything else and absorbs the taste. One thing about eggplant is that it has its bitterness so before using it in this recipe you need to make sure you eliminate that. Also, the eggplant has sort of sponge like qualities so it absorbs, whether it’s sauce or oil, so keep that in mind. This is one of my favorite variations of eggplant. I first tasted it at my mother in law’s house and LOVED it. It’s full of garlic and although it’s fried it’s quite refreshing. Over a nice slice of bread with cheese or hummus and you’re set. This time, I wasn’t the one who made it 🙂 it was my husband, which made it so much better!!
