Broiled Eggplant With Garlic Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil.
• Trim eggplants and cut into 16 slices of equal thickness.
• Arrange eggplant slices in one layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and brush both sides with olive oil.
• Place eggplant under broiler about 4 inches from heat source. Broil about 3 minutes, and turn slices and broil for 3 minutes more.
• In a small dish, blend garlic with Parmesan, and sprinkle mixture evenly over eggplant. Place under broiler until bubbling. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Make a paste by smashing the garlic with a little salt and add to a small bowl. Whisk in the vinegar, soy, sesame oil, and red chili flakes.
• Heat grill to high. Brush eggplant with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until slightly charred and just cooked through. Slice each half into 1/2-inch slices and place on a platter. Drizzle with the vinegar mixture and sprinkle with mint or cilantro.

Steps:

• Score cut sides of eggplant in a cross-hatch pattern and sprinkle with salt. Let eggplant stand 30 minutes. Rinse eggplant and pat dry.
• Preheat broiler.
• In a small bowl whisk together garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil.
• Arrange eggplant, cut sides down, on oiled baking sheets and brush skins lightly with vegetable oil. Broil eggplant 3 to 4 inches from heat until skins are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn eggplant and brush lightly with more vegetable oil. Broil eggplant 3 to 4 minutes, or until flesh is golden. Transfer eggplant with a slotted spatula to a platter and brush with garlic sauce.

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over high heat. Cook and stir the eggplant until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the water, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder. Cover and simmer until all the water is absorbed. Meanwhile, mix sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce, and oyster sauce in a bowl until sugar and cornstarch have dissolved. Stir sauce into the eggplant, making sure to evenly coat the eggplant. Cook until the sauce has thickened.

Steps:

• Start a grill or preheat broiler. Combine the vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, chilies, salt, pepper and sugar, if using, in a large nonreactive bowl and set aside.
• Slice globe eggplants into 3/4-inch rounds or cut Japanese eggplants in half lengthwise. Marinate the eggplant in the sauce for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the eggplant and reserve the sauce. Brush both sides of the slices with oil. Grill or broil until nicely browned and tender, about 5 minutes a side. (Do this in 2 batches if necessary to keep from crowding eggplant.) Remove to a platter and pour the reserved sauce over the eggplant. Serve immediately.
