A recipe for stuffed aubergines

[fpb]

Just invented, and it does not have a name yet. First person who successfully duplicates it - and likes it - can have it dedicated to them.

For two persons:
One large aubergine (eggplant)
some stale bread
two raw eggs
half a cup of rice
Double concentrated tomato
Ginger, star aniseed, feugreek, paprika or chilli powder, salt

Cook the rice. Take the fresh aubergine, scoop out the flesh, and place it in a blender together with the bread, rice, eggs, salt and spices. Blend it into a paste. Smear the inside of the scooped aubergines with double concentrated tomato, and place the paste over it into them. Bake in a fairly hot oven for some forty minutes.
EDITED IN: I forgot the fenugreek! There is also some fenugreek among the spices. Anyway, where spices/herbs are concerned you can experiment.

I have to say--"aubergine"! Yay! (Such a more elegant word than eggplant.)

Icon love! Can I steal it?

I don't like eggplants either! Or else I'd happily try it out.

And I hate them - that is why I experiment with stuffings.

Go right ahead and steal! If you're a TFD fan, you might like this one as well.

This sounds quite good -- alas, aubergine doesn't agree with me. :(

That sounds amazing. This is going to happen in my kitchen as soon as shopping occurs again (i.e. in early December, as I'm going out of town for the rest of November). We'll see how it turns out! XD

Meat-itarian that I am, maybe a little ground sausage in the mix.

Well, that has already been invented, I'm afraid.

so much for my claim to fame.

Double concentrated tomato? Is that tomato paste?

[fpb.livejournal.com]

Yes. Sorry, that's what we call it.
