Believe it or not, there once was a time when I despised eggplant. The first couple of times that I made it, I hated the texture and flavor. Then, after watching several recipes on YouTube, I discovered that eggplant is like a sponge and will absorb whatever flavor you put into it. Henceforth, it’s completely up to you how it turns out. I’ve since mastered the texture and have experimented with several flavors along the way. This recipe was delish and I even had the leftovers for lunch the next day. Dare I say it was even better the next day?
