·Here are the basic ingredients. You can go as extreme as you want to go, or as basic as you want to go. Feel free to experiment.
Egg Plant (enough to feed the family), cut into 1/2" slices or slightly thicker, depending on taste
Rose Mary, 4 sprigs (more or less depending on your taste), removed from stems and left whole
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for flavor, and you may want to add some butter in the pan, for more flavor)
Salt and Pepper (to season the egg plants, cause like Emeril, the Egg Plants I get don't come seasoned).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All that you do is to take the EVOO (and butter), and bring it to temperature. Then, take your Rose Mary and saute the "leaves" in the EVOO until aromatic.
Season the egg plant with salt and pepper, and your favorite seasoning on both sides. Take them and lay them in the EVOO and rosemary and good until tender. *If the egg plant soaks up all the EVOO, just add more so that you can keep the frying process going*
Once they are cooked, lay them on a plate to rest for 5-10 minutes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can also chop the egg plant into cubes of the same size, for even cooking, and do the same steps above.
After cooking the egg plant, you can mash the egg plant and make a new version of "mashed potatoes".
You can put them on a bun with tomatoes, lettuce, onion and pickle, and eat it just like a hamburger.
You can leave the skin on if you would like, that is entirely up to you.
