  1. Really, really good, s'kat! I had to make a few changes though, using what I had on hand. I used water instead of broth, and herbed and spiced it a bit with dried marjoram, cumin, celery seeds, salt and pepper. I also used salted butter and garlic powder, and I had to omit the cheese, which I didn't have. Even with all those changes, it was quite wonderful. This may sound weird, but I had this over cooked ramen noodles (without the seasoning), and it turned out to be a surprisingly good combination!
     
  2. Yet another wonderful eggplant recipe S'kat! Never changed a thing, it was excellent. Even eggplant disbelievers have enjoyed your eggplant hash and meatballs.
     
  3. This was an excellent eggplant dish. The potatoes cooked in the vegetable broth had very good flavor. I increased the garlic to 2 cloves. It had a saucy texture and made a wonderful main dish. S'kat, thanks for sharing you recipe. You are right--it was stove-top stirrin' fun!!
     
  4. Just OK. As my husband said, "It was edible." It just lacked flavor for us and was kind of ho-hum. I served over brown rice and topped with cheddar.
