Hunkar Begendi ( Turkish Eggplant Cream )

This literally translates as 'the Sultan's Delight', and it is that! The first time I had it, I fell in love. Mild, rich, buttery - it perfectly complemented the braised beef (in tomato sauce) that it was meant to accompany. This is a very subtle dish. If you want FLAVOUR, look elsewhere. This is flavourful in a more refined way, and also a lesson to our overly-spiced palates.

INGREDIENTS:
3 medium eggplants
1 tablespoon lemon juice
6 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup hot milk (more may be necessary)
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
grated greek kasseri cheese or kefalotiri or parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS:
Grill eggplants whole without peeling them by holding over a flame and turning slowly, or prick skin in several places and set in hot oven.
When the skin begins to break and the inside pulp feels soft, slip off the skin; discard sacs containing seeds and chop up pulp; put pulp in a saucepan.
Mix lemon juice with pulp and simmer until very soft, stirring often (10-15 minutes).
Meanwhile, melt butter, add flour to it and allow flour to brown.
Beat the butter and flour mixture into the eggplant.
Slowly add several tablespoons of hot milk and the nutmeg and continue beating until mixture resembles mashed potatoes.
Lastly add several tablespoons of grated cheese and cook several minutes more.
Serve immediately.

The only way I eat eggplant is to slice it,salt and pepper it,coat it with cornmeal,put just a little grease in a frying pan and fry for about 1minute on both sides.You can use it to make sandwiches or just get to eating.They taste great like that.You can also do squash like that.

I work in an Italian restraunt and the way we do it is to first peel them then cut them into 1 inch slices then we fry them on medium heat using only extra virgin olive oil until they are a light to medium brown.drain them on papertowels,then we place them on a baking pan we put about 2 tablespoons of our tomato sauce on each piece than a slice of mozarella cheese and a fresh basil leaf,then we put another slice of the eggplant on top of the first one and repeat the process.we stack them 3 high. bake them on 350 for 15 minutes garnish with fresh basil and parmesana cheese.Hope this helps.

You know what, I bet since zucchini bread is so delicious, you could use the recipe for zucchini bread and substitute egg plant. Let me know if you try it and it's good.
