Broiled Eggplant and Tomatoes – HmF – Virtual

Ingredients

3/4 lb. Eggplant, raw (sliced into 1/4" planks)
1/4 tsp. Salt (divided)
2 medium Roma tomatoes (or globe tomatoes)
1 1/2 tsp. Olive oil
2 clove Garlic, raw (minced)
2 Tbsp Fresh basil (chopped)(or thyme or rosemary)
1/4 tsp., ground Black pepper
1 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese (grated)

Instructions

Gather all ingredients and equipment.

Preheat broiler to medium high heat.

Toss eggplant with 1/8 tsp. of salt and place in a colander to let drain for 20 minutes, then pat dry.

Cut tomatoes in half and place cut side up on an unlined sheet pan. (Note: if tomatoes are very large you may need to cut them in thirds.)

Combine oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Brush mixture over the cut side of the tomatoes and eggplant.

Broil until tomatoes and eggplant start to soften and brown about 4 minutes. Once softened, top with cheese and cook for another minute to brown the cheese.

Top with fresh herbs. Serve warm.
