In case you were wondering, I really do like the new flourless chocolate cake recipe better!
New experiment: Baked stuffed eggplant
I enjoyed this...
Methods
Cut eggplant in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh.
Sprinkle eggplant shell and eggplant pulp with salt and leave alone for a while...
Rinse off eggplant pulp, and dice. Also dice some green bell pepper. I would've diced onion too but didn't have any at home.
Oil aluminum foil over a cookie sheet, and also sprinkle the eggplant shell with oil. Throw under the boiler.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in skillet, and throw in garlic, thyme, crushed red pepper. Throw in eggplant and green pepper and cook for about 8-10 minutes. Flavor with salt and pepper. At this point, this was already tasty and I probably could've just let things be. I ended up throwing in about half a cup of red wine and let it reduce.
Next, I added in fresh tomatoes, cubed old bread, and milk until it's a stuffing consistency. I used soy but regular would've worked fine. I also added in goat cheese and parmesan.
Stuff the eggplant shell with the stuffing. Cover with foil. Put back in the oven. When it's done, throw on sliced gouda and pop under the broiler.
Cover with tomato sauce or salsa.
YUM!
