I'm not sure if the food column I got this from is syndicated... If so, I'm sure some of you have seen this by now. But I'll post it anyway! I just made these tonight and they were So Good and So Easy I couldn't believe it! The original recipe called for an egg, which I left out. I'll post it exactly the way I cooked it:

Boil eggplant in salted water until tender. (I know we just had a back and forth about whether or not to salt eggplant, but I like it salted!) While it's cooking, combine all other stuff (except cooking spray) in a big bowl. Mash eggplant well (I used a food processor) and mix with other stuff. Make small patties and cook on heated, sprayed non-stick pan. Turn once; cook until golden brown on both sides. That's It!!! They were delicious. Enjoy!
