Stuffed eggplant... whooda thunk it?! Yes, you can stuff this extremely versatile veggie with just about anything you like. The flesh is completely absorbent to any flavors you give it, and sweating them allows for a more concentrated taste.
"This was a stuffed vegetable dish with a difference! I had no problem finding the kefalotiri cheese. It’s the most popular type of cheese to cook with here in Cairo — and the aubergines are ten-a-penny as well.”

“This is absolutely awesome. I followed the recipe except I sautéed some celery with the veggies. This will become a household regular.”

“Was pleasantly surprised by how much flavor this delightful side held. The parmesan cheese, pine nuts and raisins are all perfectly balanced.”
