Ingredients
  • 2 Italian or Japanese eggplants
  • 1 - 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
Method
  1. Wash and dry eggplant
  2. Slice lengthwise. Slice thin, but not too thin that the eggplant falls apart
  3. Place eggplant on plate or tray
  4. Salt eggplant generously
  5. Let eggplant sit for 30 minutes to 1 hour. I like to add some weight on top to help purge the moisture from the eggplant.
  6. Rinse to remove the salt and dry well
  7. Brush both sided of sliced eggplant with olive oil
  8. Grill on high for around 3 minutes on each side, give or take
  9. When you have nice grill marks and the eggplant looks tender, remove from heat
  10. Transfer eggplant to plate or bowl, and add 1 - 2 cloves of sliced garlic
  11. Drizzle with olive oil
  12. Serve at room temperature
  13. Tastes great cold, the next day
