How to prepare each food

Eggplant

Prep

Cook eggplant until very soft (roast, steam, or braise), then scoop the soft inside away from the skin. The skin can be tough and chewy, so it is easiest to leave it off at this stage. Serve the soft flesh warm as a mash or stirred into a purée.

Cut

Smooth mash of the soft inner flesh, skin removed.

Olive oil

Prep

Stir a small drizzle of olive oil into a smooth purée or soft mash to add calories and richness. Use it as a cooking fat for vegetables or grains, or fold a little into the finished food just before serving.

Cut

No cutting needed. Mix a small amount evenly through the food.

Putting it together

Eggplant slices salted, rinsed, and browned in olive oil.
