10 Days Of Toast - Day 8 - Roasted Eggplant & Pomegranate
Updated: Dec 21, 2020
The weather has been awful in Amsterdam! It seems to be getting worse by the day, so I had to make something extra special this morning. Today's toast showcases my absolute favorite vegetable, eggplant. This recipe is for roasted eggplant discs with pomegranate, herbs, garlicky yogurt and date molasses on toast. It's smokey, sweet and salty, and is just what you need on a miserable day.
I love eggplant as it's so versatile and the smokey flavor it offers is like nothing else. It's fantastic in pasta, in salads and even on toast - believe me! In this recipe, the eggplant is roasted in the oven, but can also be pan-fried. Eggplants are like sponges - they absorb so much oil when pan fried, so its healthier to roast, although pan frying will also work.
The roasted eggplant is drizzled with yummy garlicky and salty yogurt, sweet date molasses, parsley and pomegranate seeds. It takes less than thirty minutes to make and makes such a treat. I usually have this eggplant as a dinner side without the toast, so it really is versatile. If you don't have date molasses, you can always use honey instead.
If you only try one of my toasts, please let it be this one! (Although you would be a fool to miss my Camembert and roasted tomato toast :) )
