Ingredients

2 small eggplants
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium cucumber
1 each red onion sliced
1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar firmly packed
1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

Lightly brush eggplant slices with oil and put them on a tray.

On a barbecue with lid, place grill 5-6" over a solid bed of hot coals.

When grill is hot, rub it lightly with a paper towel dipped in salad oil.

Lay eggplant slices close together on grill. Cover barbecue, open drafts, and cook until slices are well browned and soft when pressed, 15-20 minutes; turn, as needed, with a wide spatula.

Return slices to the tray.

If slices are cooked ahead, cover and chill up to a day.

In a bowl, cover cucumber and onion slices with ice water.

Quickly squeeze slices to briuse lightly, then cover and chill 30 minutes to 1 hour; drain.

In bowl, mix cucumber, onion, vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

If made ahead, cover and chill up to 4 hours.

Coarsely chop eggplant and spoon onto a rimmed platter; top with cucumber and onion mixture.

Add salt to taste.

An Absolutely Perfect Roast Goose!

I used this recipe on Christmas and it was the first time I made a goose. I used a 10 lb goose & the cooking method was terrific. I pricked the goose all over & then boiled it briefly, for about a minute. I stuffed the bird with aromatics (apple, onion, celery) and then roasted it. The skin was not greasy at all. I didn't use the stuffing recipe reccomended in this recipe, but of all the cooking methods I read online, this appeared to be the best. I plan on using it again. The key is to have a roasting rack that is high off the bottom of the pan.
