Eggplant Aubergine And Feta Casserole Recipes

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) AND FETA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300°F; spray oil a casserole dish (I used a low oval one).
• Spray oil a large frying pan and heat over high heat. Place eggplant slices in a single layer (you may have to do 2 batches). Cook for 3-5 minutes each side until browned. Place in prepared casserole dish evenly across the bottom (some may overlap).
• Pour stewed tomatoes over eggplant in an even layer, then feta, parsley and cilantro (in that order).
• In a small bowl, combine eggs, onion, salt, pepper, allspice, oregano, sage and cayenne. Pour evenly over items in casserole dish.
• Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake for another 10-20 minutes until firm.
• Serve hot or cold.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

• Place eggplant and bell pepper slices directly on the preheated grill. Cook until eggplant is softened, marked, and slightly charred and peppers are softened and marked, 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat as necessary to prevent burning.
• Remove from grill. Arrange in 4 piles, starting with a slice of eggplant and alternating eggplant and pepper slices, including one slice of each bell pepper color in each pile. Top with feta cheese. Sprinkle with basil and oregano. Serve warm.
