Eggplant with Pomegranate Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds long, slender Japanese eggplants
Olive oil
Pomegranate Sauce
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 small clove garlic, peeled and crushed to a puree with 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 to 3 tablespoons shredded fresh mint, preferably spearmint
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons fresh pomegranate seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • Start the preparation the day before serving. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil.
  • Remove the stem end from each eggplant. Slice the eggplants on the bias into 1/2-inch thick ovals. Spread the slices on the baking sheet in a single layer and brush with olive oil. Bake the eggplants 12 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Using a spatula, transfer the slices, overlapping slightly, to a shallow serving dish.
  • In a small bowl, combine the pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, garlic, sugar, olive oil, and salt; blend well. Drizzle the sauce over the eggplant. Top with the mint, parsley and pomegranate seeds. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand until ready to serve. Can be refrigerated overnight, but is best served at room temperature.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I'll try it again with less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the pine nuts. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my eggplant was mushy. I'll try it again and see if I can get it right.
