Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 large eggplant

salt

1 small yellow onion

12 ounces fresh mushrooms

(button, cremini or baby portabellas)

2 teaspoons olive oil

1/2 cup liquid

(vegetable broth, beer or water)

For the sauce:

1/3 cup natural peanut butter

1/4 cup water or vegetable broth

1 teaspoon honey or brown sugar

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

 

1. Cut eggplant into roughly 1-inch chunks and soak in salted water for 15

minutes. Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion and quarter the mushrooms.

Saute the onions in the olive oil in a large skillet until they are lightly

browned. Rinse and drain the eggplant. Add eggplant and mushrooms and liquid to

the skillet. Cover and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is

soft (5-10 minutes). Remove cover and continue to cook until most of the liquid

has evaporated.

 

2. Mix together peanut butter and water in a small bowl. It may seem like it

will never mix together, but keep at it. When the mixture is smooth and creamy

add the honey, soy sauce and vinegar and mix until the mixture is smooth again.

 

3. Pour sauce over sauteed vegetables in the skillet. Add pepper and hot sauce

to taste. Simmer, stirring, for a minute or two until the sauce has thickened

and thoroughly coated the vegetables.

 

4. Serve hot with your favorite rice and steamed green beans or other green

vegetable.
