Categories: Vegetables, Deal-a-meal, Sparkie, Eggplant Roma
4 teaspoon Olive oil
1 lg Clove garlic, minced
One half cup Chopped onion
2 cup Peeled, cubed eggplant
1 One half cup Peeled, seeded, chopped
Tomatoes
Salt and pepper
1 One half teaspoon Balsamic vinegar
One fourth cup Chopped, fresh basil or
1One half teaspoon dried basil
4 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds
1. In medium skillet, heat olive oil, and saute garlic and onion until
onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in eggplant and tomato. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Cover and cook over low heat until eggplant is tender, about 10
minutes.
4. Stir in vinegar and basil.
5. Cook uncovered 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.
6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
NOTE: 1 teaspoon sesame seeds = 15 calories (1 joker).
If you can't find balsamic vinegar, (I hope you can because it is
delicious), try malt vinegar or red wine vinegar, or natural rice vinegar.
Be adventurous. There are lots of vinegars out there.
Know your vegetables. Choose an eggplant that has a smooth, glossy
surface. Avoid an eggplant that is dull looking and/or soft.
