It’s hard not to love eggplant (also known as aubergine)! It can be incredibly tender, incredibly crispy, or both at the same time. It also has a neutral flavor palette that picks up whatever flavors you choose to use in a dish. I had to pay homage to this lovely fruit (yes, it’s technically a fruit!) with this round-up of some amazing healthy and delicious Vegan Aubergine Recipes. Enjoy!
