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.
