1 pinch Salt
1/2 tsp Minced garlic
1 tsp Soy sauce
1 tsp Balsamic vinegar
1 tsp Sesame oil
Vegetable oil for brushing eggplants

Preparation

Score cut sides of eggplant in a cross-hatch pattern and sprinkle with salt. Let eggplant stand 30 minutes. Rince eggplant and pat dry.

Preheat broiler.

In a small bowl whisk together garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil.

Arrange eggplant, cut sides down, on oiled baking sheets and brush skins lightly with vegetable oil. Broil eggplant 3 to 4 inches from heat until skins are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn eggplant and brush lightly with more vegetable oil. Broil eggplant 3 to 4 minutes, or until flesh is golden.

Transfer eggplant with a slotted spatula to a platter and brush with garlic sauce.
