To toast sesame seeds, spread them in a shallow pan, and bake at 350º for 5 minutes. Stir at least once so they'll toast evenly. Ingredients:
1 (1-pound) eggplant, cut diagonally into 1-inch slices |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon rice vinegar |
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted |
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil |
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice |
1/8 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper |
2 cloves garlic, crushed |
vegetable cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Place eggplant on several layers of paper towels; sprinkle salt over cut sides of eggplant. Let stand 15 minutes; blot dry with paper towels.
2. Combine rice vinegar and next 5 ingredients; stir well. Brush over eggplant; let stand 10 minutes. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill over medium-hot coals (350° to 400°). Place eggplant on rack; grill, uncovered, 5 minutes on each side, basting often with remaining sesame seed mixture.
