You can cut it in half, salt it and put it under pressure. But most often, the eggplants are cut, sprinkled with salt and allowed to stand for a while, and before cooking, the excess salt is washed off, or poured with salted water for 20-30 minutes and then squeezed out. All of these methods are equally good, so choose any one.

Eggplants are considered very healthy vegetables. Many of us love them very much, but not everyone knows how to cook deliciously. Every housewife has thought more than once about what to make from eggplants. In fact, there are many recipes that allow you to prepare delicious and wonderful dishes based on them.

Beneficial features

Eggplants are valuable because they contain many microelements that are so necessary to the human body. Moreover, the value of the vegetable will not decrease even when it is cooked or canned. Eggplants contain pectin, which stimulates digestion and at the same time prevents bile stagnation; it also stimulates the elimination of excess cholesterol.

Vegetables are also rich in potassium, which has a beneficial effect on heart function. Eggplants normalize the state of water-salt metabolism in the body. They are recommended for use during diets because they are low in calories. One hundred grams of product contains only 24 kilocalories. Eggplants help cleanse the intestines.

Useful tips will help young housewives handle eggplants correctly:

1. Before cooking, vegetables should be placed in salted water for thirty minutes. This simple step will remove the bitterness.
2. If you are planning to cook caviar, you should not put vegetables through a meat grinder or chop them with a metal knife, as this may give the dish an unpleasant aftertaste. It is recommended to cut eggplants with ceramic knives.
3. As you know, vegetables absorb a lot of excess oil when fried. To avoid this, you need to scald them with boiling water.
4. To prevent the eggplant flesh from darkening, they must be fried over high heat.
5. To preserve the shape of the vegetable, do not remove the skin before cooking.

Moussaka

If you are at a loss as to what to make from eggplants, we recommend choosing a dish such as moussaka. Such food is considered traditional for the Middle East and the Balkans. The dish is prepared from minced meat and vegetables. in the oven with cheese, they turn out satisfying and at the same time very tasty.

Ingredients:

1. 830 grams of eggplant is enough for the dish.
2. Minced meat can be taken not only from beef, but also from lamb - 830 g.
3. Don't overdo it with tomatoes - 340 g.
4. One onion.
5. 70 grams of any hard cheese.
6. Olive oil.
7. To give a special taste you will need 195 grams of wine, it is better to take dry white.
8. Pepper.
9. Add salt to taste.

For the sauce:

1. Butter - 45 g.
2. No more than 540 ml of milk.
3. For the sauce, it is also recommended to take hard cheese - 230 g.
4. Flour - 35 g.
5. Nutmeg.
6. Salt.
7. A couple of eggs.

To prepare eggplant baked in the oven with cheese, you need to start with the sauce. You will need butter for it, melt it in a frying pan and add flour. At the same time, it is necessary to heat the milk, but do not bring it to a boil. In order to obtain a homogeneous sauce without lumps, all its components - a mixture of flour and butter and milk - must be at approximately the same temperature. Without ceasing to stir the milk, pour it into the frying pan to the butter-flour mixture. Salt the ingredients, adding nutmeg. Bring the mixture to a boil, then add the chopped cheese. Stir the sauce until the cheese is completely melted. After this, it can be removed from the stove. While the sauce is cooling, beat the eggs in a separate container and carefully add them to our mixture. Next, mix the ingredients well. Our sauce is ready.

Now you can move on to preparing the dish itself. For moussaka, chop the onion into rings. But you should first peel the tomatoes and then cut them into cubes. Cut the eggplants into elongated circles (but remember that they must first be soaked in salted water) and fry on olive oil. After that, place them on a paper towel to get rid of excess fat. In addition, you need to fry the minced meat and onions in a separate pan. About halfway through the process, you need to pour in the wine and continue cooking until it evaporates. Next, you can add pepper, salt, tomatoes and simmer the food for a couple more minutes. On this preparatory stage finished, you can start assembling the moussaka. We take a mold and lay out all the components in layers: minced meat and eggplants, with the vegetables on top. Pour the sauce over the dish and sprinkle grated cheese on top. Now the moussaka needs to be placed in a preheated oven and cooked for up to forty minutes.

Rolls

Stuffed eggplants with cheese and garlic are very tasty. This appetizer is suitable even for a holiday table.

Ingredients:

1. Vegetable oil.
2. Several boiled eggs.
3. A couple of eggplants.
4. 120 grams of cheese (you must take hard varieties).
5. Salt.
6. Garlic.
7. Mayonnaise.

Grind the eggs and cheese, mix together and add garlic, seasoning everything with mayonnaise. The vegetable filling is ready. Now you can start preparing the eggplants. They need to be washed and cut lengthwise into thin slices. Next, put in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. By leaving the preparation for ten minutes, you can get rid of the bitterness. After the specified time has passed, the eggplants must be washed well, removing bitterness and excess salt. After this, squeeze the vegetables thoroughly and put them in a bowl, pouring a couple of tablespoons of oil on the eggplants. We will fry the vegetables in a clean (without adding oil) frying pan. This is done in order to avoid excessive fat content in vegetables. Some housewives even apply oil with a brush. However, it is easier to pour it into a container and mix it with the eggplants.

In a dry frying pan, fry each plate on both sides for about three minutes. As a result, the eggplants look like they were grilled. Cool the roasted vegetables under a bag or lid until they become soft. Next, place a teaspoon of filling on each slice and roll it up into a roll. Ready-made stuffed eggplants with cheese and garlic can be sent to the refrigerator, where they can steep before serving.
