Got any good eggplant recipes?

There are good eggplant recipes?

I'm gonna try this one today (movie-themed food for the Oscars includes meat pies -- no humans will be harmed -- and ratatouille):

Also, I love baba ganouj. This is my recipe:

Baba Ganouj

2 large italian ("regular") eggplants
juice of 1-2 lemons
1-2 garlic cloves
tahini (i think i use around 1/4 cup)
salt to taste
olive oil, divided (i think i used a tablespoon in the mixture, and
about the same amount on top)
paprika

preheat oven to 400f. cut the stem ends off the eggplants, prick them all over with a fork, and bake them on a baking *** for about an hour, turning once about halfway through. when they're done, they should be very soft. cool them just until they're cool enough to handle. halve the eggplants, and scoop the soft insides into a bowl, blender container, or food-processor container (i used my handheld immersion blender and a bowl). add the remaining ingredients except for some olive oil and the paprika. pour into a serving bowl. to serve, drizzle some olive oil over the top and sprinkle with paprika. (Optionally, also toss a few pine nuts on top for garnish.)

Serene
