Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 medium eggplants, (about 1 pound each) 1/4 cup olive oil Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 medium cucumber, seeded, coarsely grated, and squeezed of excess moisture 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Directions

Heat grill to medium-high. Halve eggplants lengthwise; slice off enough from skin side so halves lay flat. Brush both sides of eggplant halves with oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Grill until tender, 5 to 7 minutes per side.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cucumber, yogurt, parsley, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Serve sauce with grilled eggplant and lemon wedges, if desired.

Cook’s Notes It’s always a good idea to cut an eggplant right before you’re ready to use it, as the flesh discolors rapidly. If it’s fresh, it’s not necessary to salt eggplant before cooking.
