Aubergine bake

Adapted by mixing a bunch of recipes, including Mona's eggplant-keema, which I still intend trying out soon.

Take -
1 large eggplant
Cut into circles, sprinkle salt and keep it for 30 mins for the water to come out. Drizzle olive oil and grill for 2-3 mins.

Take -
1 large tomato chopped
1/2 medium onion chopped
4-6 pods garlic crushed
1 tsp oil
Cook the above with oregano, chilli pwd, salt (amount as per taste), till it becomes soft.
Add- 1 cup cooked soya nuggets, stir, and keep aside.

Arrange the grilled eggplant on a greased baking dish. Sprinkle salt and pepper, put a layer of soya mixture, sprinkle dried basil and parsley, grate cheese. Repeat with a second layer of eggplant slices.

I had some soya mixture left over, so coated a few fresh oregano leaves with oil, placed it on the dish, layered the soya mixture and cheese.

Pop it in the oven and bake till the cheese starts melting.

Best had with garlic bread.
