I got this recipe from Two Men and a Little Farm quite a while back and I have been using it constantly. It is Delicious!! My absolute favourite way to cook Brinjal
Brinjal growing in the garden
Nice size picked and ready to cook
Slice brinjal and spread a layer of mayonnaise over each slice. Dip the mayo side into some grated Parmesan cheese and place onto an oven baking tray. I bake them at 180 degrees for about 15 mins or until they are soft and browning on top
Wow I would never have thought of cooking with mayonnaise. I must try this... if I manage a big enough crop of eggplant (that's what I call them). So far I've only grown two skinny white ones (I think they were 'casper' variety). My friend gave me some from her excess crop last week and I made the mistake of frying them - but with too much oil and I hadn't salted and squeezed them so they were sucking the oil up and made me feel a little ill afterwards. Yours look much healthier.
ReplyDeleteI also thought the mayo was a bit strange at first, but I tried it anyway and it worked well. Just a thin layer so the cheese sticks. Luckily I have had a good crop this year.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna try that! I'm pinning it as we speak! I usually don't know how to cook eggplant, so this is a good easy recipe.
