Ingredients

Directions

  • Slice the eggplant into 1-inch cubes or rounds.
  • Stir the salt with the eggplant in a bowl and arrange the eggplant in a single layer on a wire rack.
  • Place wire rack in tray or sink, as eggplant will drain liquid.
  • After 30 min, rinse the eggplant and pat thoroughly dry.
  • Heat oven to 400 F.
  • Rinse the eggplant under cool water, and then pat thoroughly dry or run through a salad spinner.
  • Spread the eggplant on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Whisk oil, soy sauce, and paprika in a small bowl.
  • Use a pastry brush to spread mixture over eggplant.
  • Roast the eggplant for 20 min.
  • Turn over, and continue to roast until eggplant is golden-brown (about 15 min more).
