Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup sherry wine vinegar
3 medium eggplants, trimmed and each cut lengthwise into 8 wedges (2 lb total)
3/4 tsp salt
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp dried oregano, crumbled
1/8 tsp black pepper
6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh mint
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions:

Special equipment: a 12-inch collapsible steamer basket or a pasta pot with a shallow perforated colander-steamer insert.
Bring 1 inch water and 2 tablespoons vinegar to a boil in a large pot (or a deep skillet with a lid). Arrange eggplant, skin sides down, in steamer basket and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then steam, covered, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer basket to sink and let eggplant drain 5 minutes.
Transfer eggplant to a deep platter. Whisk together garlic, oregano, pepper, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined. Pour dressing over eggplant while still warm and let marinate at room temperature, basting with dressing several times, 2 hours. Sprinkle with mint and parsley just before serving.
