aubergine (eggplant)

Stuffing: tuna, potatoes, black olives, capers, oregano

This meat free pizza makes the most of Mediterranean flavours and is topped with a luxurious Italian cheese. Taleggio is a washed rind cheese with a soft and gently wine flavoured taste. Its a perfect cheese for melting and has a stronger flavour than Mozzarella. Cooked spinach works really well...

To prepare this baked rice we have substituted the ragout sauce with a simpler aubergine and fresh tomatoes sauce, which makes the preparation lighter and suitable for a vegetarian diet.

This is a way of making a little go a long way. The recipe contains just 125 grams of minced pork and will serve two people for a light meal, especially if served with another Chinese vegetable side dish. The only spices used here are chillies, ginger and whole cumin seeds, all of which work...

First of all, this isn't my recipe. It is one that is somewhere between inspired by and someone else's. But I don't know whose. Hubby printed it off and the site didn't put a link in the bottom or footer to say it was from this site and there is not a darned thing that gives the game away. So...

Aubergine and Chocolate. Yes, it sounds a bit weird, yet this combination works very well. There is a cake that is made on the Amalfi Coast (Campania - Italy) that includes aubergines and chocolate. This time I wanted to try a less demanding and most fun version. Serves: 4 | Preparation time...

This vegan dish makes a good light lunch with some crusty bread on the side. The flavours are intriguing and contrasting, using earthy Indian spices with miso and sweet & sour pomegranate molasses. Use more chilli if you want a spicier tomato sauce. Ingredients (makes 5 to 6 involtini) For...

This is a little fiddly to make but not at all difficult. The filo strips stick nicely to the aubergine and peppers so there is no need for a mould. I served it as a starter. For a vegan version you could substitute sun dried tomatoes or capers for the anchovy. Ingredients (makes 2 to 3...

An unusual combo even if very good...and with a pinch of Chilli pepper www.MyPinchofItaly.co.uk

We used to have a gas cooker (rings and oven) which made this slightly easier, but now only have electric. There are still ways around the issues for charring the aubergines, you just have to get creative. You can use a blow torch, you can use a barbeque, you can use a camping stove, or you...

Hi there, I'm new here, hi to all. I am hoping someone can help me with a question about the flesh of the aubergine. I have cooked them for many years, but I've just bought two from the supermarket, that once cut open, look quite different to any I've seen before. I am wondering if they are...
