Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Provide casserole dish.
Cut eggplant in half lengthwise and place cut side down in baking dish. Put in the oven and roast for 30 minutes.
2 Piece medium eggplants
After cooking time, remove from oven and let cool briefly.
Hold the top of the eggplant with one hand and scoop out fillets with a sharp-edged spoon and a little pressure (see video).
Place fillets in a bowl and brush with marinade of choice (I use my homemade BBQ sauce). Leave to infuse in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
125 ml Barbecue sauce
Just before grilling, remove from refrigerator and grill for 3-4 minutes on each side. Enjoy with additional sauce and side dishes of your choice.
Olive oil, Fresh basil, Lemon slices, Salt and pepper
