Braised eggplant
In the winter I very rarely buy eggplant, tomatoes, cucumbers and zucchini, because I live in a country where there are luxury grown on open field vegetables, the taste of which does not compare with the greenhouse. Therefore, the eggplant, probably the last this season, a kind of aftertaste of summer.
