Eggplant, herb, and feta patties are a delightful and nutritious dish that combines the rich, savory taste of eggplant with the freshness of herbs and the tangy flavor of feta cheese. This recipe is perfect for a light lunch or as part of a larger meal. These patties are sure to please vegetarians and meat-eaters alike, offering a wonderful blend of textures and flavors.
- Roast the Eggplant: Roasting the eggplant before mashing it will enhance its flavor and make it easier to mix with the other ingredients. Simply pierce the eggplant with a fork and roast it at 400°F (200°C) for about 30-40 minutes until it's soft.
- Drain Excess Moisture: After roasting the eggplant, allow it to cool and then scoop out the flesh. Place it in a strainer or on paper towels to drain any excess moisture. This will help the patties hold together better.
- Chill the Mixture: After combining all the ingredients, allow the mixture to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will make it easier to form the patties and help them hold their shape during cooking.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Using fresh basil and parsley will enhance the flavor of the patties. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but reduce the quantity by about half.
- Cooking Method: You can cook the patties by frying in a small amount of oil until golden brown, or for a healthier option, bake them in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Enjoy your delicious eggplant, herb, and feta patties! Whether served as a main dish or a side, these patties are a versatile and tasty addition to any meal. With their delightful flavor and satisfying texture, they're sure to become a favorite in your recipe repertoire.
