EGGPLANT OMELET (TORTANG TALONG)
Torta is "omelet" and talong is "eggplant," but this Filipino dish is more like an egg-battered cutlet eaten for breakfast or lunch.

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Lay the eggplants in a single layer on a baking sheet and broil them, flipping once or twice, until they are soft and blackened on all sides, about 15 minutes. (If you have a gas stove, you can do this by holding the eggplants with tongs over a burner on medium-high heat, turning them so they blacken on all sides.)
- Place the softened eggplants in a ziplock bag. Set aside for 10 minutes to steam (this makes the skin easier to peel). Peel the eggplants, discarding the skins, and use a fork to gently flatten the flesh.
- Put the eggs in a shallow bowl. Beat well and season with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Dip each eggplant in the beaten eggs, letting it soak for a second or two so that it is well covered with the egg. Season the egg-dipped eggplant with additional salt and pepper and place it in the skillet. Repeat with the other eggplant, making sure there's room between them in the skillet. Place 1 tablespoon of the crab (if using) on top of each eggplant, pressing it down with a fork.
- When the eggplants are crispy and browned on one side, 4 to 5 minutes, flip them over and cook until browned and crispy on the second side, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the eggplants to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Serve hot or at room temperature, with fish sauce.

Steps:
- Peel eggplant and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Sprinkle sea salt over slices and arrange in 2 even stacks in a shallow dish. Put a flat dish on top of eggplant and weight with 1-lb can 2 hours.
- Rinse salt from eggplant under running water and pat slices dry between double layers of paper towel.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Heat oil in an ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat. Sauté eggplant in batches of 3 or 4 slices until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Drain as sautéed on brown paper or paper towels.
- Pour off oil from skillet and wipe, leaving a light coating. Cover bottom of skillet with half of eggplant, overlapping slightly, and make another layer with remaining eggplant. Whisk together eggs and cheese in a bowl and stir together tomato paste and water in another bowl.
- Heat skillet with eggplant over moderate heat until hot and pour in egg mixture, lifting edges of eggplant so eggs coat bottom of skillet. Cook omelet, uncovered, over low heat, until eggs begin to set around edge, 5 to 7 minutes. Slowly pour tomato mixture in a spiral pattern over surface of omelet, then bake in upper third of oven until eggs are set and pale golden, about 20 minutes.
- Loosen side and bottom of omelet and slide onto a plate. Serve at room temperature with a few grindings of black pepper.

EGGPLANT OMELET
I usually just make this into scrambled eggs rather than making an actual omelet and filling it. You can adjust the amounts of any of the ingredients up or down as you prefer. I use the really thin, long type of eggplant that is only about an inch in diameter. You can use any type of eggplant you like.

EGGPLANT OMELET (SOUTH BEACH PHASE 1)
I'm on a low carb diet and found this super simple recipe in an old edition (June 1990) of the Swiss cooking magazine 'Betty Bossy'. I adapted it so that it is suitable for the South Beach Diet Phase 1. I have not tried this yet, but I am posting it here for safe-keeping. South Beach Diet phase 1 if you use skim milk instead of the cream and olive oil instead of the butter.
