Layered, Roasted RatatouilleEvery now and again, you happen on a dish that’s just perfect.  This is that dish.  It’s a positively delicious dish.  It’s loaded with rich flavors and vivid colors.  Though it’s absolutely best made when the garden is overflowing, it transcends seasons.  And perhaps best of all, it goes together quickly and is even better made ahead and eaten at room temperature.  Continue reading →

Roasted Sicilian Eggplant with Golden Raisins and CuminI probably shouldn’t be calling this Sicilian Eggplant, since I’m not only not Sicilian, hell, I’m not even Italian.  This may seem like it has non-Italian flavors, but we need to remember that the Moors “visited” Sicily for quite a number of years.  Therefore, this has many of the flavors they left behind, after they moved on.  You know, things like raisins, pistachios and cumin.  It matters not what those flavors are, it’s still darned delicious.  Continue reading →

Roasted Eggplant Wedges with Soy-Balsamic GlazeYou may have heard rumor that The Goddess has a torrid affair going.  Don’t worry your pretty little head about it, The Spicy Honey knows all about my relationship with eggplant.  I love it (and him!) in any and every form, but roasted (not him!) is I think perhaps, my favorite.  Continue reading →

Roasted Eggplant with Chorizo StuffingEggplant is a favorite around The Goddess’s abode.  It’s one of those blank canvas-types of foods, like zucchini and white bread.  Stuffed eggplant is a one-dish wonder and this one is particularly interesting, with addition of chorizo sausage, mint, currants and feta cheese.  Continue reading →

019You’ve heard The Goddess prattle on about how much she adore leftovers.  She prays at the table of leftovers.  I’m certain it’s gotten to the point where you want to gouge out your eyes and run a red-hot poker through your ears, every time she says that.  But this…this lunch right here…this is why she feels that way…not the gouging or the hot poker part, but the loving leftovers part….

I must confess, The Goddess has never met an eggplant she hasn’t loved.  I’m afraid it’s true.  And The Latin Lover is okay with it, so don’t worry.  He knows all about it.  This original recipe came from Epicurious and of course, The Goddess made a few little changes.  Continue reading →

I love eggplant parm.  I was peeling an eggplant to make it when I realized, that I really should have another one, but it’s cold and I didn’t want to go out to get another eggplant, so then The Goddess improvises.  In the way my mind works, or doesn’t, I thought SOUP!  Anyway, you may have heard that lately soup has been on my mind, so in the words of the late Mr. Spock,  “It is perfectly logical”.  I thought eggplant parmesan in soup-form might work.  I think it did.  Continue reading →
