1. Cut the eggplant into quarters lengthwise. Cut a lengthwise slit in each piece, but do not pierce the skin.
|
2. In a casserole, mix the onion, meat, and seasonings, breaking up the meat as much as possible.
|
3. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven for 3 minutes.
|
4. Break the meat up again as finely as possible and cook, uncovered, for 2 minutes more.
|
5. Fill the slits in the eggplant almost to the top with the meat mixture. Top with two wedges of tomato.
|
6. Arrange the eggplant in a 12-inch by 9-inch rectangular casserole with a piece along each end and the other two pieces along the sides.
|
7. Spoon on any left over filling and then pour on the tomato sauce.
|
8. Cook, covered with plastic wrap or wax paper until the eggplant is tender (about 20 minutes). Uncover and cook a few minutes more.
