These were just picked today and they were surrounded by sandspurs and grass. I was amazed to walk out and see these. I have cooked several Eggplant Parmesan dishes and they were pretty good. I think I will now make Moussaka. Does anyone have any recipes containing eggplant? I need new recipes to use all of these. I find that most people that live around here do not care much for eggplant, or that is what they tell me when offered any.
Followup: A friend of mine told me that it is wonderful roasted in the oven with some other veggies like squash and chunks of sweet potatoes or grilled on the grill. I will have to try that.
Another friend told me to batter it up and fry it. I will try that also.
Moussaka
It was pretty good actually
I have to say though I would have to say those ladies that fix this at the Greek Festivals in Florence have me beat by a mile
I do have a great recipe for eggplant. Roasted Eggplant Lasagna is a late summer favorite here at 1840 Farm. It is rich and delicious and will please even those who don't usually enjoy eggplant.
