    Just awful, I should have known better after reading the recipe, instead of wasting food. I finally had to prepare another dinner, no one would eat this mess.

    Awful, just plain awful. Tried feeding it to the dog, she sniffed it and walked away! Giving it 1 star only because 0 isn't an option.

    After reading the advise of others, I added sauteed onion, garlic and lemon peel to the recipe. If I make it again, I will dice and cook eggplant for a shorter period of time. 10 min. was too much. I'd rinse it, as it was just a little too salty. Also, it only needed a splash of the *clam juice/half & half, and the cracker crumbs should be added as topping AFTER the *. Since my husband doesn't like the taste or consistency of eggplant, he didn't like it...perhaps some one can recommend a way for eggplant to taste crunchy like bacon - lol

    It's so good I have to invent a word for it. Delorcious! I think for those who complained about the consistency and tasting bland, they did not season the water. I put some Goya Adobo. Next time, I will add lemon juice. It was a great taste for an unlikely combination. I can see where a better cook could respect the dish's ingrediedients and make it their own.

    Eggplant and clams? I love clams. I was unsure of the eggplant and the combination. Made the dish (but used two cans of clams! One word... YUM!

    Sadly, this was a bland mess. However, I HATE to throw food away, so I sauteed a healthy-sized onion and two cloves of chopped garlic with a pinch of Italian seasoning in olive oil. I added this to the leftover eggplant/clam mix...added more cracker crumbs and a beaten egg. I fashioned the leftovers into "cakes" (ala crab cakes. I sauteed the cakes in EVOO until golden brown, and served them with a relish made from chopped tomatoes, diced celery, chopped red onion, a diced nectarine,and minced green pepper. Add a dash of sugar, a pinch of salt and pepper, a splash of raspberry vinegar to the relish. Let sit. Served together, the "recycled" eggplant mix and relish practically sang to us! I usually am happy with Paula's recommendations, but Bo's recipe really needed tweaking.

    My mom made it and it didn't last long! Next time we're going to double the recipe!

    Looking at the recipe I knew it's not going to be good. I helped a cousin make this for Christmas dinner and it was simply a disaster. Yuck! It was forgetable! BOIL THE EGGPLANT?! MASHED THE EGGPLANT?! It has a very yucky texture and simply very bland. There isn't any single ingredients in the recipe that compliments the aubergine. Might as well go for a bayaldi of veggies which is 10 times better and easier to prepare and cleaner taste.

    I tried this right after watching the show. I changed things a bit, by simply dicing the eggplant in cubes and quick stir frying it (instead of boiling. I salted/garliced it while stir frying.

    I loved the recipe. It was creamy and I personally liked the diced eggplant. I also topped when eating with a bit of romano cheese. I'd definately make this one again. Thanks Paula.

    This stuff is AWFUL! It has no taste and the texture of baby food. I nearly vomited when I tasted it, and my seven year old , who usually eats eggplant, spit out the first bite! I do not recommend this!
