Too difficult? Okay, I agree and understand. So here is a much easier yet yummy way for you, using Japanese seasonings, which you can get from Japanese groceries or amazon etc.
Ingredients:
One small eggplant. (If it's big, please double the rest of ingredients)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp Shirodashi (Japanese soup stock)
1/2 tsp dried thyme and rosemary
1 slice or 2 tbsp of melting cheese
A hint of dried nutmeg (or paprika) and gound black pepper to taste
1. Slice eggplant as thinly as shown in the picture below. In a small bowl, soak them in salted water. Adding this process prevents eggplant from absorbing unnecessary oil. (Japanese wisdom!)
2. Place eggplant in a microwave-safe dish and then sprinkle dried thyme, rosemary, and ground pepper. Pour Shirodashi and sesame oil.
3. Sprinkle cheese and microwave for 2 minutes.
4. Garnish with nutmeg and dig in!!
