Chard, eggplant yum

*the real “recipe” here is the eggplant, will definitely repeat the combination of spices

Eggplant

Maybe my first time making eggplant not in ratatouille, which I have only made 2 or 3 times.

Thinking about herbs more. I roasted the eggplant w fresh thyme I happened to have, dried rosemary, cumin and salt. It was very good. Nice to have eggplant not so greasy as it often is in restaurants.

Chard

I love chard. The leaves were sautéed with chicken broth, salt and juice of half a lemon. This was three meager bunches.

Still thinking about when to use pepper… Only sometimes. salt always. Crud I forgot to put pepper in the millet. [that would be inspired by Doug warnock’s rice in idaho- it was white rice with butter and lots of black pepper–so good, first time I really considered pepper] so yes, for instance, here, I would salt the eggplant millet and chard, but only pepper the millet.

Chard stems

Stems chopped with one onion sliced thinly, coated in grape seed oil (high heat tolerant), ghee (trying it out😐), salt and pepper, damn can’t remember what spices. So good! I think inspired by the chard casserole I made awhile ago.

Millet

Salmon with poultry seasoning
