Braised Eggplant With Onion And Tomato Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle fillets with seasoned salt; drizzle with lemon juice. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender. Add tomatoes, peppers, broth, tomato paste, garlic powder and oregano; cook and stir 2-3 minutes longer., Place fillets over tomato mixture; cook, covered, 6-8 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. If desired, serve with pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Halve eggplants lengthwise and score flesh 1/2 inch deep in a crosshatch pattern to make 1-inch squares (do not cut through skin). Arrange eggplant halves, cut sides up, in a large roasting pan and season with salt.
• Cook onions in 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in tomatoes, parsley, basil, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons sugar, and salt.
• Divide topping among eggplant halves, mounding in centers. Stir together water, remaining 1/4 cup oil, and remaining tablespoon sugar until sugar is dissolved, then add to roasting pan. Cover pan tightly with foil and bake in middle of oven, basting eggplants every 15 minutes with cooking liquid, 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until eggplants are tender (they will collapse and flatten slightly) and cooking liquid is reduced and beginning to caramelize, about 40 minutes more. Serve hot or at room temperature, drizzled with pan juices.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat grouper fillets dry and add to the skillet. Cook until lightly browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Remove to a plate. Lightly season the uncooked side with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Add remaining olive oil to the same skillet. Cook and stir onion over medium heat for 1 minute. Add garlic and stir for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, red wine vinegar, and agave. Move the vegetables to one side of the skillet.
• Return fillets to the skillet, uncooked side-down. Evenly distribute the vegetables around and over the fish. Sprinkle capers on top. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, uncovered, until the thickest part of the fillet flakes with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Serve each fillet with vegetables. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Chop green onion and put garlic through press; saute in hot oil for 2 minutes.
• Peel and cut eggplant in 3-inch strips. Add to skillet in single layer and cook over high heat until lightly browned on both sides.
• Add broth; cover and simmer about 10 minutes, until eggplant is tender.
• Stir in soy sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Arrange eggplant halves, cut sides up in a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Season each half with about 1/4 tsp. sprinkling of salt. In a 12 inch skillet over medium high heat, cook onions in oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer onions with oil to a medium sized bowl and stir in tomato, parsley, basil, sugar and remaining salt. Spoon tomato mixture on top of eggplant. Pour broth into bottom of pan, cover with foil and bake 15 minutes. Baste eggplant with liquid in pan; then recover and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes. Baste again; discard foil and bake until eggplants are tender, about 20 minutes more. Serve warm with a drizzle of sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season the eggplant slices with salt, and let stand for about 10 minutes. Drain off liquid.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Quickly brown the eggplant slices on each side.
• Place a layer of the eggplant slices in an 8 inch square baking dish or casserole dish. Place some tomato slices over the eggplant, and then a few slices of onion. Repeat layers until you run out of eggplant. Pour balsamic vinegar over everything. In a small bowl, stir together the bread crumbs and remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Spread in a layer over the vegetables.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is golden brown and the eggplant is tender.

Steps:

• Trim ends off the eggplant. With a vegetable peeler, cut off alternating strips of skin. Cut eggplant into 1-inch cubes, place in a colander over a large bowl and toss with salt. Let sit for 30 minutes to 3 hours, rinse well and squeeze to remove as much liquid as possible; do not break cubes up.
• In a large skillet or saucepan, heat 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the eggplant cubes and move them around occasionally, until they are rather tender and somewhat browned, about 7 minutes. Remove from the pan with tongs, leaving as much oil as possible in the pan. Set aside.
• Add remaining oil to the pan with the onions and pine nuts and stir occasionally, until the onions are transparent and some pine nuts are lightly browned, 7 or 8 minutes.
• Return eggplant to the pan with the tomato, raisins, sugar, cinnamon, cumin and pepper. Mix well, then turn heat to low. Cover the pan and cook until the eggplant is very tender but still in distinct pieces, about 30 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking, stirring once or twice, until the liquid is somewhat thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan from heat and let sit uncovered until it is at room temperature, about 45 minutes. Stir in the dill and parsley, adjust the seasonings to taste and serve, accompanied by yogurt and lemon wedges for squeezing.
