Try, for instance making vegetarian Moussaka: Slightly boil several potatoes. Slice and place on the bottom of a greased (olive oil) baking dish. Slice eggplant and salt and place in a collander with a plate and a weight on it. Leave this for an hour or so, to press out the bitter juices. You can fry these as well, but IMHO that is a waste of oil and time. Another alternative is to steam the eggplants whole, with only the stems and end cut off, and with the skin scorred. Steam for about 10 minutes, let cool and then slice. This will ensure that the eggplant is partially cooked *before* the final baking stage. When finished, place over the potatoes. Slice tomatoes and place on top of that. Take 1-2 yoghurts, 1-2 eggs, salt, pepper, garlic, basil and mix well. If you like, you can add a bit of tomato paste to this, or crushed tomatoes. Pour all this over the top of the contents of the baking dish. Grate about 200 grams of cheese and sprinkle on top of this and finally, sprinkle paprika over this. Bake all this in the oven at medium heat. Uncovered, it will get brown. Covered it will get melty. Do as you wish. (If you want any Parve recipes, I can do that too. My In-Laws are vegetariansand we have had many, many lovely Pesach Sedarim at their home.) The Chocolate Lady Davida Chazan ~*~*~*~*~*~ De chocolatei non est disputandum!
