HERBED EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) SOUFFLE
This was the first "soufflé" I'd made, and it came out quite well! (And was actually a LOT easier to make than I'd anticipated.) Steingrim, who dislikes eggplant, loved it. Finally, an eggplant he'll eat! :) The recipe is adapted from Kim D's adopted recipe for "Creole Eggplant Souffle."

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; butter or oil a 1-1/2 quart baking casserole or souffle pan.
- Over medium heat in a large skillet (with a cover) or round French oven (my Le Creuset works wonderfully well), melt butter and oil together, then add the onion, celery, and garlic and saute over low heat until the onion is translucent.
- Sprinkle in the flour and stir well until incorporated.
- Add the basil, oregano, and thyme and saute, stirring, until flour begins to brown.
- Add the milk and the diced eggplant.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook, until the eggplant is very tender, about 15 to 20 minutes; check the mixture every 5 minutes or so and stir, adding water or broth to keep the bottom of the skillet moist.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl; allow to cool for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and 4 egg yolks and stir well to coat.
- Add yolk mixture to the eggplant mixture and stir well; set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the eggplant mixture.
- Pour soufflé mixture into the buttered casserole or soufflé pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 40 to 45 minutes, or until it is a nice golden brown and is puffy.
- Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes, then serve immediately.

TWICE-COOKED EGGPLANT WITH CILANTRO-SESAME PESTO
When people say that they don't like eggplant, I tell them they just haven't tried my eggplant. Eggplant chunks are first roasted for a lightly caramelized flavor, then finished in a wok with a myriad of Asian flavors. Dark purple globe eggplant works well here, but the narrow Japanese variety is my preference because it is sweeter.

Steps:
- 1. To roast the eggplant: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- 2. Toss the eggplant with the oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread on an 18-by-13-inch half-sheet pan. Roast, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely. (The eggplant can be covered and stored at room temperature for up to 4 hours.)
- 3. To make the pesto: With the machine running, drop the garlic through the feed tube of a processor to mince it. Add the cilantro, lemon juice, sesame oil, and sesame seeds and process until pureed. With the machine running, pour the olive oil through the feed tube to make a smooth sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (The pesto can be covered tightly and stored at room temperature for up
- to 4 hours.)
- 4. To make the mayonnaise: Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside for up to 1 hour.
- 5. To finish the eggplant: Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add the oil and swirl the wok to coat the sides. Add the eggplant and spread it out in a single layer. Let cook until the underside is seared, about 1 minute. Stir-fry until hot, about 1 minute more. Remove the wok from the heat. Add 3 tablespoons of the pesto, the pine nuts, the cilantro leaves, and the sesame seeds. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with the mayonnaise, and serve hot, with the remaining pesto passed on the side. (Leftover pesto is delicious stirred into plain steamed rice or used to flavor vinaigrette.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter well and chill 8 1 1/4-cup souffle dishes.
- Place eggplants on baking sheet and cook for 30 minutes, or until soft. Meanwhile, roast red peppers by placing them atop an ignited gas burner, turning often until skin blackens; if you do not have gas burner this can be done under electric broiler.
- Scoop flesh and seeds from the eggplant when it has cooled slightly and place it in colander. Wash blackened skin off peppers, then core and seed. Set aside.
- Place eggplants and peppers in food processor or blender. Add ricotta, cumin, jalapeno peppers, coriander, salt and pepper. Puree well. Taste for seasoning and transfer to bowl.
- Add yolks to mixture and combine well with wire whisk. In another bowl whisk whites until they form soft peaks. Fold 1/4 of whites into mixture, then remainder. Do not overwork. Taste for seasoning.
- Place souffle dishes on baking sheet and fill to rim with mixture. Before placing in oven run thumb around rim of each to remove any overflow, which could cling and prevent souffle from rising fully. Bake for approximately 10 minutes.

EGGPLANT SOUFFLE
Every year, my husband plants a garden and, every year, he cuts back on eggplant but we always have an abundance. I can't find enough friends and neighbors to give the excess to so I have to invent new ways to fix it so we don't get tired of eating it.
