This was my first time using eggplant and I was surprised how good it turned out. I didn't have fresh oregano so I used fresh basil in the mixture and as a garnish. It truly is not the most beautiful appetizer but it tasted great. I took the advice from a previous review and added a clove of minced garlic in the mixture and rubbing the bread with the garlic is a must! Thanks Anne!

This recipe was just the ticket for a vegetarian choice for my cocktail party (as were the truffled eggs and involtini from the same show. I added a single clove of minced garlic to the mix as well as rubbing the bread, just because I like garlic. My guests - veggies and meat eaters alike - all loved it.

Jean: if someone has washed their hands before they start cooking, and wash them repeatedly throughout, what's the problem? I'd say almost everyone I know uses their hands while they're cooking. I think you probably just dislike this particular chef.

This is one of the most disgusting dishes I've ever made. Ever. And I cook A LOT and have made plenty of my own mistakes. But this recipe is an atrocity. This looked like dog food and tasted like dog...well, ya know. The balsamic is WAY too overpowering. I'll just stop there. It went directly in the garbage.

Just 2 in our house hold, so this made quite a lot. We used the left over as a dip with bagel crisps. It was awesome!

I had alot of eggplant and wanted to try something new when I watched Anne make this and went out immediately and bought the rest of the ingredients. I was not sorry for making the special trip to the store. I do believe finding the right baguette with the crust and chew to the bread rubbed in the garlic helps. Like I said I had alot of eggplant since it's in season so I added extra eggplant and cheese and adjusted the salt. This was great even cold later. I also brushed the bread with the oil before I toasted it. Thanks Anne! Now I have something new to serve my family and friends.

made this yesterday and wasn't feeling too confident throughout the process. i tasted, i seasoned, i tasted again, i shrugged "meh". BUT, what brings it all together is the garlic rubbed on the toasted bread. i had tried every version (topping on spoon, topping on untoasted bread, etc, but i didn't absolutely love it until i tasted it exactly how it is to be prepared on the garlic rubbed grilled bread. it was wonderful! oh, and we used low fat ricotta because that is how we roll.

thanks anne!

This dish was very easy to make and the end result was absolutely delicious. I have an on-going love affair with ricotta cheese, so this helped make this a five-star dish for me. The sublime grilled eggplant was lovely . Please try this recipe!
