I'm on a low carb diet and found this super simple recipe in an old edition (June 1990) of the Swiss cooking magazine 'Betty Bossy'. I adapted it so that it is suitable for the South Beach Diet Phase 1. I have not tried this yet, but I am posting it here for safe-keeping. South Beach Diet phase 1 if you use skim milk instead of the cream and olive oil instead of the butter. Ingredients:
1 small eggplant (250g) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
30 g butter or 30 g margarine or 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil |
3 eggs |
3 tablespoons cream (use milk for sbd phase 1) or 3 tablespoons skim milk (use milk for sbd phase 1) |
1 pinch nutmeg |
salt |
pepper, freshly ground |
Directions:
1. EGGPLANT: Slice in 1/2 inch (1 cm) pieces and sprinkle with salt. Leave for 15 minutes. Dry with kitchen paper.
2. Melt butter or margarine or olive oil in a frying pan. Fry the eggplants on both sides. Reduce heat.
3. Mix eggs with cream (or milk) and season with nutmeg, salt and pepper.
4. Pour egg mixture to the eggplants and cook covered until done.
