Asian Eggplant

[ArnieM]

I grew some this year and it's pretty much end-of-season here so I had to use them, ready or not.

Carolyn was kind enough to give me the link below in a previous thread.  That thread kinda went OT so I started this one.

I mostly followed the recipe but increased the vodka for the marinade from 2 to 5 TBS.  2 went into the marinade.   ;)

Here's an idea of the size.


Cut up per the recipe instructions.


I made the salsa and put the eggplant on the grill.  About 5 or 6 minutes per side.

The finished product, with the salsa.  Yes, they were good.

I am more of a meat and taters guy, but them vodka shooters sound good.
Take a double shot glass...one ts of salsa...fill glass with vodka...

I'm with you on the meat and taters.  I just figured I'd try this and it was really pretty good.  Now, I'm out of vodka.  >:(  Time for the JD.  ;D
