I'm not sure where my Mom got this recipe, but I love it! It is my favorite way to make eggplant. I'm told this is a Tammy Wynette family recipe. The original recipe didn't give the amount of spices to use, so I guessed. You can use a little more/less according to your taste. Ingredients:
1 medium eggplant |
1/4 cup flour |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 small onion, chopped |
14 1/2 ounces crushed tomatoes |
1/2 teaspoon oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
3 tablespoons cheddar cheese, grated |
1 dash nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Peel and dice the eggplant. 2. Dip in flour. 3. In a medium size skillet, saute eggplant in the butter, when browned slightly, remove. 4. In same pan, saute onions, do not allow to brown. 5. Place eggplant in a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish. 6. Add tomatoes, oregano, salt and pepper. 7. Mix carefully to blend ingredients. 8. Top with cheese and a sprinkle of nutmeg. 9. Bake 325 degrees F. for 20 minutes, until hot & bubbly. |
