Directions:
- Preheat the broiler and position the rack on the top level.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and brush the foil with oil.
- If using Japanese eggplants, slice on the diagonal 1/3 inch thick.
- If using Italian eggplants, slice in half lengthwise, and then cut slices 1/3 inch thick.
- Lay as many as will fit on the baking sheet and brush with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Broil until lightly browned.
- Turn and repeat.
- If you have more slices than will fit on one baking sheet, repeat the process until all slices have been browned.
- Turn off broiler and pre-heat oven to 350°F.
- Toast the cumin seeds in a small saute pan until they darken and give off an aroma.
- Cool the seeds and place in a bowl with the rest of the seasoning ingredients.
- Lay the eggplant slices in a baking dish in slightly over-lapping rows or concentric circles. Dribble or brush over each row the seasoning mixture until all slices are used.
- Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. (Result is a lovely casserole/gratin of eggplant to serve as a side.
- In the alternative, place slices on baking sheet, brush with seasoning mixture and bake till mixture is absorbed. (Result is a canape which can be served on its own).
- Beware-the aroma is so good you will be tempted to pick one up and eat it to the despair of your fingertips and tongue.
- As a canape or a side, the eggplant can be served hot or at room temperature.
