Best Crusty Baked Eggplant Aubergine Recipes

HOW TO COOK EGGPLANT: OVEN ROASTED EGGPLANT RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
• Slice the eggplant crosswise to make circles, about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) thick. Cut off the leafy end only after you are done slicing, so that you'll have more to grab onto as you slice.
• Arrange the eggplant slices on an extra large baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Flip and repeat the olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and pepper.
• Roast the eggplant slices in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, until soft and golden.
