From and is described as follows: The classic combination of eggplant, tomato, and herbs is enhanced by the addition of feta cheese to create a delicious meatless appetizer or main dish. Haven't tried it yet but sounded yummy and easy to make. Ingredients:
2 lbs eggplants (long slender type) |
olive oil (for frying) |
5 tablespoons of chopped fresh basil |
5 garlic cloves, minced |
1 lb of ripe tomato, diced |
1/2 lb feta cheese, crumbled |
sea salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Wash the eggplants and remove stems. Cut lengthwise into 1/2 inch slices. Fry lightly (until soft and gently browned) in 1/4 inch of oil.
2. Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C).
3. Layer the eggplant in the bottom of a baking dish.
4. Combine the tomatoes, basil, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste, in a bowl, and spoon the mixture over the eggplant. Top with feta cheese, and bake at 355°F (180°C) for 45 minutes.
5. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
