Add this Eggplant with Garlic, Sweet Spanish Smoked Paprika, Fresh Herbs, and Honey to your mezze platter or serve as a side dish with fish or grilled meats. The earthy flavours of smoked paprika and eggplant combine with sweet honey and fresh herbs for an unexpected but satisfying flavour combination. ⁠

INGREDIENTS:⁠

1 eggplant, approximately 1 lb (450 g)⁠
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt⁠
1 garlic clove, minced⁠
4 Tbsp (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil, divided⁠
1 tsp (5 mL) chopped fresh thyme⁠
1 tsp (5 mL) sweet smoked paprika⁠
1 Tbsp (15 mL) thinly sliced fresh Italian parsley⁠
1 Tbsp (15 mL) honey⁠

INSTRUCTIONS⁠

Slice eggplant into 1/4 inch (6 mm) slices. Salt on both sides and place in colander. Allow to stand for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C). ⁠

In the meantime, sauté garlic in 2 Tbsp (30 mL) olive oil in skillet for about 5 minutes over medium-low heat, until soft and slightly golden. Remove from heat and reserve.⁠

Prepare baking sheet by brushing with remaining 2 Tbsp (30 mL) olive oil, making sure entire surface is coated. Once full hour has elapsed, pat eggplant slices dry with kitchen towel and place on baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, until slices begin to brown. Use tongs to turn slices over then bake for further 10 minutes, until eggplant is soft and golden.⁠

Arrange eggplant slices, slightly overlapping, on serving plate.⁠

Return reserved olive oil and garlic to skillet over low heat, until just warm. Turn off heat and add thyme, sweet smoked paprika, and parsley, stirring well to combine. Spoon mixture over eggplant, being sure to scrape up all the oil using a spatula. To finish, drizzle with honey and serve.⁠
