EGGPLANT GRATIN
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat about 1/8-inch of olive oil in a very large frying pan over medium heat. When the oil is almost smoking, add several slices of eggplant and cook, turning once, until they are evenly browned on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Be careful, it splatters! Transfer the cooked eggplant slices to paper towels to drain. Add more oil, heat, and add more eggplant until all the slices are cooked.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the ricotta, egg, half-and-half, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
- In each of 2 individual gratin dishes, place a layer of eggplant slices, then sprinkle with Parmesan, salt and pepper and spoon 1/2 of the marinara sauce. Next, add a second layer of eggplant, more salt and pepper, half the ricotta mixture, and finally 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan on top.
- Place the gratins on a baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the custard sets and the top is browned. Serve warm.
CHICKEN AND EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) ROLLS
I just LOVE this recipe for these flavoursome chicken and eggplant rolls, which can be served as an appetiser, as a main dish or as one of several main dishes for a Greek-style meal. They are great with a Greek salad and warm crusty bread. Adapted from a recipe on an International Masters '1001 recipes for pan or wok' recipe card, and posted for the 2005 Zaar World Tour. For a vegetarian variation, replace the chicken with spinach (see notes below), or double the recipe and make some of each. When getting together your ingredients, err on the side of having a little too much eggplant rather than too little, so choose a really large eggplant or two medium-large ones! See notes below.

Steps:
- Cut the eggplant lengthways into thin strips, finely chop the chicken (I find it easier to cut the chicken with kitchen scissors), peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a pan, preferably non-stick, and sauté the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes, or until soft; add the chicken and sauté until browned and cooked through.
- Transfer to a bowl, season to taste and allow to cool slightly. Stir in the basil, lemon zest and cheese.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the cleaned pan, add the eggplant slices in batches and sauté for 3-4 minutes, turning until browned. Remove and keep warm on a plate covered with foil. Repeat the process with the remaining oil and eggplant slices until all of them have been browned.
- Lay the eggplant slices on a work surface, and spread with the chicken mixture (do not overfill the eggplant slice or the mixture will ooze out the sides when you roll it), and roll (Swiss-roll style) to enclose the roll and secure it with a cocktail stick, so that the stick is flat and woven once through the eggplant slice where it closes.
- Add the sauce to the cleaned pan and heat until simmering, add the rolls, cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until they are heated through.
- Transfer to a warmed serving plate. You may like to remove the cocktail sticks at this stage. Garnish with basil and serve.
- Chef's note: I rarely salt eggplant before using it, and haven't found it to be necessary in this recipe; but if you prefer to do so, add in that step. If you have any slices of eggplant left over once you have made your rolls, chop them roughly and add them to the sauce in step 6. If you have filling left over, use it to stuff another vegetable: a tomato or mushroom would be ideal. Refrigerate until you have time to deal with it!
- Vegetarian Variation: For a vegetarian version, replace the chicken with 350g (12 ounces) of fresh spinach. Wash,dry and finely shred the spinach, then add to the pan in step 2 with the onion, and heat until wilted. Or for a quicker version of this, use a thawed and thoroughly squeeze-dried packet of frozen spinach. And add a pinch of nutmeg, cumin or cinnamon.
SPICY CHINESE EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) AND CHICKEN
This is one of my favorite dishes. It has a really good kick. Make sure not to overcook the eggplant because then it will get mushy.

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) AND FETA ROLLS
As appetisers, these stylish and elegant Eggplant and Feta Rolls couldn't be quicker and easier to make, and there are times when that's just what we're all after: a simple, and tasty dish that is quick to put together, but doesn't actually look or taste 'quick and easy'! Naturally this recipe has fewer ingredients than other similar recipes. And that really means that more than ever the ingredients need to be TOP quality. I found this recipe in the June edition of the magazine 'Australian Table: easy family food and healthy living'.

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) AND RICOTTA ROLLS
Delicious and easy vegetarian recipe. I char-grill fresh sliced eggplant using my George Foreman grill, but you can buy it ready made from the deli. I also find it easier sometimes to omit the thyme leaves and lemon rind and use instead a bottled dried mix of lemon, basil and thyme from the supermarket.

STUFFED EGGPLANT PARMESAN ROLLS
Had this for the first time at a take-out pizza and pasta place in southern California. We all loved it so much that we came up with our own version that is just as good as the take-out one. This has become an all-time favorite in our house. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce, cream sauce, or other topping sauce. We serve this over spaghetti noodles, then top with favorite sauce sprinkled with cheese. Or just eat as they are straight from the oven.

EASY CHICKEN EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) PARMESAN
This recipe is an easy recipe because you don't cook the chicken or the eggplant before putting them in the casserole. It's also easy because you use sauce from a jar. Of course, you can use your favorite homemade pasta sauce if desired.

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) ROLL-UPS
These tasty roll-ups are simple and quick to make; they look pretty impressive too. You can make the roll-up filling in advance, if you like; it will sit quite happily in the fridge for a few hours until you need it. Cooking time includes the time for salting the eggplants.

Steps:
- Slice the eggplant lengthways into 1/4 inch thick 'tongues' (the more slices you can cut, the more roll-ups you will make - the remaining curved outside pieces can either be used like an 'open sandwich' or used in another dish): sprinkle the slices with salt' leave for 30 minutes then rinse and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Put the chickpeas, tahini, garlic and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a food processor and whiz together to a paste.
- Stir in the chopped pepper, tomatoes and mint, season with salt and pepper; transfer the chickpea mix to a bowl and cover until you are ready to assemble the roll-ups.
- Pre heat the grill, arrange the eggplant slices on the grillpan rack and brush one side of each slice with a little of the remaining olive oil, grill for about 5 minutes; turn the slices over and repeat the oiling and grilling process (the slices should be golden and softened by the cooking process): set aside to cool slightly.
- Dividing the chickpea mix between the number of slices, spoon the mix onto the thinest end of each slice; roll up the eggplant slices round the chickpea mix.
- When serving the eggplant roll-ups make sure that the edge is on the bottom; they should stay in place, but secure the roll-ups with a cocktail stick if necessary.
