Tips:
- Choose the right eggplant: Look for small, firm eggplants with smooth, taut skin. Avoid eggplants that are large, soft, or have blemishes.
- Slice the eggplant evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to cut the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick slices.
- Salt the eggplant slices: This will help to draw out moisture and prevent the slices from becoming bitter. Sprinkle the eggplant slices with salt and let them sit for 20 minutes before cooking.
- Cook the eggplant slices in a single layer: This will help them to cook evenly. If you crowd the slices in the pan, they will steam instead of fry.
- Don't overcook the eggplant slices: They should be tender but still have a bit of bite to them. Overcooked eggplant slices will be mushy.
- Assemble the sandwiches while the eggplant slices are still warm: This will help the cheese to melt and the flavors to blend.
Conclusion:
This baked eggplant melt sandwich is a delicious and easy vegetarian meal. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The eggplant is tender and flavorful, the cheese is melted and gooey, and the bread is toasted and crispy. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is both satisfying and delicious.
