Interesting Mini Eggplants
Often, when I go to the market, I see interesting new foods that I don't recognize. I have this desire to try new things and so sometimes (but not too often for Anthony's sake!) I buy them and try them out. Such was the case with these little eggplant-like veggies.
To be honest, I don't know specifically what they are (but I do know they are edible, don't worry...). They truly look just like eggplants in all ways, but small and greenish.
I asked the lady who sold them to me how people usually prepare them and she told me to fry them with tomatoes. So I did. I chopped them up and stir fried them in olive oil with tomatoes. It looked like ratatouille while I was cooking them, but these little guys tasted much more bitter than regular eggplants. I think that I will stick with regular eggplants from now on.
