Ingredients
-
1 Medium to Large Eggplant
1 Medium to Large Yellow Onion
2 Tbsp. Olive Oil, Divided
15 Oz. Can of Hunt's Tomato Sauce
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Cayenne Pepper to Taste (or your favorite hot sauce)
Tips
You can add garlic, tomatoes, mild green chiles and/or celery to the onion if you like. This dish is also good served as a warm side dish with meat.
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake eggplant in an oven safe dish for one hour, or until soft.
2. While eggplant is baking, dice entire onion and place it in a saute pan with 1 tbsp. of olive oil and cook on medium-high heat or until tender and translucent, remove from heat and set aside.
3. When eggplant is soft all the way through (you can check it with a fork), remove it from oven. Cut a slit in once side of eggplant and scoop out inside contents into the pan with the onion. Discard eggplant skin. Add the other tablespoon of olive oil and saute everything together, slowly adding your can of tomato sauce.
4. Add salt, pepper, and cayenne or hot sauce to individual taste. Remove from heat, cool, and refrigerate. Serve chilled with vegetables for dipping or sprouted grain bread.
