Ah, before the days of eggplants.

*Aubergines.

Seriously though, while I like them, cooking them is such a pain. They absorb all the oil or whatever, and you end up with one piece that tastes of coconut while all the others fry dry.

Use olive oil, not coconut. And use enough of it to drench all the pieces.

Absolutely, I've stopped using coconut on that particular vegetable. It still soaks it up, but now I baste it with a silicone brush and just chuck it in the oven.
